I Met You in My Sleep

 I Met You in My Sleep

I woke up from a deep sleep last night
And I thought about what I’d seen
I saw your face as I was holding you tight
You were the star in my dreams

I feel the warmness that’s here with us
As I hold you in my arms
I’m the luckiest person in the world
You broke me with your charm

You’re the only person that’s for me
You’re my princess, you’re my queen
There’s no one else like you in this world
You’re number one, there are no other girls

This is the way that I feel
Look inside me and hear my truth
Our love is deep and real
For you, any mountain I would move

I believe this was a vision
Of how our love will be
I’m looking forward to that future
Too bad this was just a dream

I can’t wait to meet you in person
When our souls find each other
The wait will be worth it

Our connection will be discovered

Walk In the Park

Walk In the Park

I remember when we used to walk in the park
We used to look at the birds
We stayed until dark
There was a lot of sight seeing

We walked together side by side
Then we would sit on the bench
We would talk about the future
And how we would never split

Those were the days
When our love was strong and good
We were so in sync
Even without talking, we understood

As we walked through the park
We would talk about everything
This was our usual spot
On summer and winter days

Oh what a memory
Oh how beautiful that was
Sometimes I want to have that back

Should we reconnect or stay moved on?

We Can Make This Last

We Can Make This Last

We’ve been spending a lot of time together
Since the first day we met
The connection between us is like stormy weather
It stirs up all the love thoughts in our heads

I feel like we’re falling for each other
There’s no denying it
The way we act when we’re together
It makes it so obvious

Anytime that we’re apart
I can’t get you out of my head
Are you going through the same thing?
I was in doubt but you confirmed it instead

It feels so good to be in sync
Our love has just begun
I’ve waited so long for this moment
When I can say I’m falling in love

We’re moving at a nice pace
Things aren’t going too fast
We’re taking the solid way

This is how relationships last

Chapter 1 - Dreaming of Love

From The Book, ''Love Poems: Are You The One?''

Chapter 1 - Dreaming of Love

The Dreaming of Love stage is a territory that is often visited.  This is where people fantasize about who is the one for them. For some people who are not in relationships, they question when they will find the one.  For others who are in unfulfilled or unsatisfying relationships, they ask themselves if their partner is the one and if not, they wonder when they will find the one. 

What is the one?  People have different meanings for this.  Is it the man or woman of your dreams?  Is it just a physical connection?  Is it more than physical?  Does it involve a deeper connection such as a deep emotional or spiritual connection?  After coming across so many people and seeing different experiences, I’ve come to the conclusion that ‘’the one’’ will vary from person to person. 

People evolve and grow.  Have you ever found yourself not attracted to things that you once were attracted to?  What about the opposite, are you now attracted to things that you weren’t attracted to in the past?  Maybe you want someone taller or shorter.  Or perhaps, you’re attracted to a different personality.  Maybe you want someone who is more outgoing or someone who is more introverted. 


One common thing that I’ve seen in some people may or may not shock you. They are attracted to someone that gives them a challenge.  I’m sure this isn’t the case for every single person, but let’s face it; it is human nature for some people to want what they think they can’t have. At last we begin Dreaming of Love.

I'm Sorry For The Mixed Signals

I’m Sorry for the Mixed Signals

We met each other recently
It was a nice meet
What am I supposed to feel?
How do I know if this is true love?

We bonded so nice
You were very attractive
I can’t find anything wrong
Is this too good to be true?

I could see myself falling in love with you
But I’m an idiot, I backed off from you
I went cold and I went silent
I let fear take over and didn’t know what to do

I know you’re probably wondering what went wrong
You didn’t do anything to deserve this sad song
Maybe I was too caught up in my own dream
You were finally here and all I did was freeze

I had this idea of what my true love would be
You were very close to that reality
To be honest, it scared me
I’m in so much shock, I just can’t believe

What should I do?
What should I say?
I can’t expect you to understand
Or to give me a break

I’m sorry for the mixed signals
I was wrong
I didn’t mean to hurt you

 I’m just used to being alone

Chapter 2 - Falling In Love

Chapter 2 - Falling In Love

Falling in love is an awesome feeling.  I’ve been there before.  There’s a lot of excitement when you are first falling in love.  A lot of people want it and crave it.  Just imagine how many love songs, love movies and other topics of love that’s out there.  It’s one of the most talked about topics.  The feeling of knowing that you can have a potential life mate to create a life with can seem very fulfilling.

There were several questions that I’ve had when I fell in love in the past.  Is what I’m feeling real?  Is this truly falling in love, or is this just the rush and excitement from meeting someone new where there is mutual attraction?  Then the little birdy whispers in my ear and says, is this going to be something that works or will I get hurt? 

Different people react to the fear of falling in love in different ways.  Some people ignore it and go full steam ahead.  Others come across as giving mixed signals because their heart is fighting their head.  The heart is saying, give this a shot.  But the head is saying, run, run, run.

I don’t believe in letting fear rule the heart.  At the same time, I do believe that learning from past experiences can help us make stronger decisions in the future.  If you’re experiencing falling in love at this moment, my advice to you is to enjoy it.  Take it one moment and one day at a time.  Pay attention to the signs and clues over time.


If your mind, your gut feeling and the practical elements are in alignment with your heart, then it’s most likely a good situation for you.  On the other hand, if something doesn’t feel right, then just make sure that you pay attention to any red flags. This will help you decide if you need to continue or exit the situation. These are some thoughts on Falling in Love.

Imagining Love

Imagining Love

I try to imagine real love
What is it like? How will it come?
Will I feel butterflies?
Or is that a myth and a lie?

What if love sneaks up on me?
Before I know it, I’ll have a family
Will it catch me by total surprise?
Am I ready to be satisfied?

What if love comes in a different way?
If it comes overnight, what will I say?
I’m imagining this day in my dreams
Until I see it, finding real love is a mystery

I don’t know how this will happen
I’ll try each day to take some action
If I focus on making me a better me
Then attracting true love will be a reality

Until that happens I have imagination
I can picture true love through many stages
I can see us spending time on the beach
We’ll hold hands until the sun retreats

I’ll hold you in my arms as the moonlight shine down
I’ll be your heat when the cool breeze comes around
We’ll be happy as we’re having all this fun
We’ll fall asleep together until the morning sun

This is how I imagine a day with my true love
Come to me now; embrace me with your hug
I know that this time is coming near

Maybe true love will happen this year
