It Wasn'T My Reality Poem by Felix Lugo

It wasn't my reality to find someone like you…to be able to meet. To talk to you. To touch you. It wasn't my reality to go from knowing nothing. To knowing what I'm feeling inside. It wasn't my reality to be able to express to you looking eye to eye. That this love I had inside me was worth holding in until the time was right. As you stand before me all I want to do is hold you. I want to kiss your lips. I want to hear your breath. I want to take my hand brush it through your hair. I want to kiss your neck. Whisper in your ear and tell you what I feel for you is pure and sincere. At times I just want to cry because I don't know if I'm in a dream. I feel like I'm falling in a dream within a dream and I don't want to wake up. I don't want to wake up because if I do wake up and I don't see you. Then everything that I ever thought. Everything that I ever believed in would have been wasted moments. If this feeling and this thought I have inside me opening my eyes viewing you now. If this is a dream let me sleep forever eternally. Let me sleep for I would not wake up. I would stay peaceful as long as you are by my side. I don't care what's going on around me. I want to be with you. Yes I'm afraid. I've never been afraid in my life until now. That actually there's someone in this world who loves me for me. I never found it in any girl. So as I look at you. I can only say that I love you because I have nothing else to offer but the love that I have inside me. The willingness to do better. The strong and courage to survive. To be there for you within the good and bad times.
