If only.

If only dreams would all come true.
Instead of here I’d be there with you.
To hold you near the whole day through.
And keep you safe the night time too.

If only you were not so far away.
Entwined in your arms I would stay.
But here all alone in my bed I lay.
Wishing that tomorrow could be today.

If only these days would quickly pass by.
You would be here and no more would I cry.
But if dreams come true then I’ll know why.
We’ll soon be together just you and I.

Thanks Bill, there are times when you want things 'now' and other times, like 'old age', they're here too quickly.

A romantic and wonderful poem. Allowing the reader to sense the yearning. I too hope time quickly will pass by.

It is a beautiful poem. And it is so true, when your someone is far away.
