Arts Poetry by Karen Lynnette Smith I Like Dreaming, Then You^re Mine And You Never Came 4 i 4 4 4 I like dreaming of you, then you’re mine. K for no other moment of our existence, when I’m dreaming, You’re mine I see your face, I touch you and I caress you And you respond. I know how you feel, how you want to be felt and how much you care And you respond. I hold you, I long for you and I have you And you respond. I lift your face and whisper my feelings And you respond. I kiss you; God, how good it feels to kiss you And you respond. In my dream, you’re mine, all mine And we’re together, our feelings are un derstood. There’s no division between us for we are one And if I want to say I Love You, I can; Without feeling that I’ve said something wrong. Because when I’m dreaming, you’re mine I have no one but you and it’s enough. I’m happy and I enjoy the existence of yoa I like dreaming of you, then you’re mine If for no other moment of our existence, when I’m dreaming You’re mint Make me yours. Karen L. Smith Last night I lay in my bed thinking Yes thinking of you. And while I laid there, I began to cry. My pillow became moist as my tear- filled eyes Began to trickle down my face. I felt so all alone, 1 felt no one cared. I wanted you, I said it out loud, tho’ no one could hear. I said that I wanted you and that I needed you.” But you weren’t here and I was alone I cried, I had to, I felt so down, No one seemed to care for me, and you weren’t here. I wanted you and I couldn’t have you, So, I cri^. 1 thought of you all night, how much I needed you and wanted you, And you never came, you never did. Karen L. Smith This Last Dance And Yet Always seen And yet Not seeing. - Always heard' And yet Not hearing Always done And yet. Not doing Always And yet. Tonight as I dance the first dance with you I am lonely and blue. Tonight of aU nights is special to me, And yet I’m without you to share in my joy. My favorite song played, and yet I didn’t dance The words made me remember the past And yes, think about you. I seem to be doing a lot of that these days. For you’re always on my mind. Seems like I haven’t see you in ages. Yet I know now that it won’t be long. Come to me my darling So that we may dance this last dance, Together. Karen L. Smith Karen L. Smith •• j
