Hearts of Night Time

The euphonious sound of crickets,
fills the night air,
whilst we lay quietly, in a field of grass,
surrounded by candle light.

The stars are scattered across the sky,
they look like little pebbles on a county road.
The moon if full and lucent.

The wind gently brushes your hair over your eyes,
I reach over to push it away,
when you grab my hand,
and pull me close,
and place your lips on mine.

My cheeks turn a soft pink,
my eyes slowly close.
My heart beats fast,
as you hold me tightly.

I rest my head upon you bosom.
I can hear you heart beating,
I can hear a heavy thumping within your chest.
Your hand is placed atop my head,
gently stroking my hair,

I close my eyes once more,
and listen to the rhythmic beating of your heart,
my hand in yours,
our fingers gently intertwined.

How I wish for this night to never end,
oh, how I wish to lay here,
beneath the scintillating stars,
hand in had,
away form the world and it's troubles,
oh, how I long to just lay there,
and never feel sad again.

My eyes slowly open,
and I see a blurry outline,
which resembles that of a wall,
I blink a few times,
and my vision becomes clear.
I slowly rise, and cross my legs,
I bounce ever so slightly,
and I realise,
I am sitting atop my bed,
surrounded by the walls of my bedroom,

I see the happy smiling faces,
of the characters on the posters,
which decorate the room.

Then all of a sudden,
it starts to sink in,
that wonderful night,
which had seemed so real,
that wonderful night,
in which I felt so happy,
that wonderful night,
when we were together, as happy as could be,
that wonderful night,
was all just a dream.
