Night Visions

by Curtis Porter III

She's been haunting my dreams for most of my life
A ghostly figure just beyond my full sight
She comes and goes, but is there when my spirit cries out
Providing a loving warmth despite the cold
The longing ache in my heart, ever present then seems old

She calms with a glance
Eases my mind not by chance
This is the one I love, the one I speak of
This is woman for me, she takes to ecstasy 
This is the one I love, a gift from heaven above
This is the woman for me, a masterpiece for all to see

In some trick of fate we can't be together
But the time we spend seems to last forever
Our kisses ignite passions withheld
The heat from the fire, hotter than the depths of hell
We laugh, smile and reminisce 
On our lives before when something someone was amiss

She calms with a glance
Eases my mind not by chance
This is the one I love, the one I speak of
This is woman for me, she takes to ecstasy 
This is the one I love, a gift from heaven above
This is the woman for me, a masterpiece for all to see

All to soon she fades away
Leaving me breathless hopeless in the light of day
A merry go round of pain and anguish 
My reality tries to force love to be extinguished 
I refuse to give up, not fight for mine
My and love and I will find each other if it takes until the end of time
