Dreams Will Have To Suffice Poem by Edward Hightower

I had looked for you so very long
And now I have finally found you
I now do know what real love is
It's joy I no longer have to pursue

Our conversations flow so easily
You always know just what to say
To make me feel so good inside
To lighten and uplift my entire day

The times that I'm just next to you
I feel how much you love and care
The times that we have to be apart
I'm thinking of the thoughts we share

But all these images are just a dream
I do awaken each day to a lonely life
Dreams of a love life at each day's end,
Until I find real love, will have to suffice
