This is very tender, Swampy....I like the way the last lines remind us, as they seem to remind you, that it's not real but still important when u are sleeping.

I can empathize with this piece, I've written about a very similar thing, except I pray that the person not disappear when I wake up...you seem content with seeing them in a dream. I love the romantic tone, you managed to make the poem itself 'dreamy'. And what I mean by that is it awakens a sort of warm longing in my heart when i read the piece. Well done friend!
