The Guy in My Dreams: A Poem of Longing and Hope

A heart-shaped iron outline stands strong amidst a backdrop of blurred lights, symbolising distant hope and dreams.

In The Guy in My Dreams, the poet reflects on a recurring dream about a mysterious figure who brings love, happiness, and protection. Though they have never met in reality, the dream feels deeply familiar, like a long-lost connection. The poet yearns to return to sleep, hoping to meet the man again, and is filled with anticipation, longing, and hope for the future. This poem beautifully captures the emotions of yearning for a dream-like love that feels real, despite the uncertainty of ever meeting him in the waking world.

The Guy in My Dreams

When I close my eyes
and sleep takes me away,
I dream of you
holding me in your arms.
Kissing and protecting me,
from dangers seen and unseen.

Even though I have never met you
except in this my dream,
It feels like I have always known you,
all my life it seems.

And when I'm wide awake,
I think of you each day.
Of all the kisses we shared together
right there in my dream.

I try to drift to sleep,
hoping we meet again.
To see your face just one more time
Oh! that would be so so great.

I will think of you each day,
You are the one I will never forget.
I will think of you just as the guy
The guy who made my Dreams.
