Andrew - 'all that matters is that you're in my arms'

Finally it happened. A sleep that was entirely worth its weight in gold.... that is.... if dreams had weight.

And here I was reliving an all too real experience. One that I had craved for what seemed to be millenia. Every detail was perfect, my subconscious mind did not let me down. Our eyes met and we eyed eachother with an affectionate connection, one that was ever more potent that before. Her eyes fluttered with childlike bouyance as she surveyed my face. No doubt I looked completely idiotic being lost in her gaze. I had almost forgotten how beautiful it was peeking through the wisps of brown velvet hair that formed a fringe about her perfect forehead. I caught a glimpse of her brilliant white teeth as she chuckled, this was something that set my heart at ease, seeing her smile was all that mattered. I was reliving a past experiece, an experience so surreal it jolted the locked memories buried deep in my mind. I surveyed my surroundings, every finite detail was complete to perfection. I wondered how much storage space this memory occupied in my mind, and I realised that I never wanted to forget it. I never wanted to forget the soothing cool breeze that swept across my skin nor the soft beating sunlight extending its rays far from the heavens to reflect flawlessly from her caramel complexion. Even the people in the background who I had never noticed before had a ring of familiarity. However, unlike last time I would not let an opportunity pass me by and I reached forward to Clutch her hand. I swung her close to my chest and hugged her in my arms as hard as I could without hurting her as if she were some sort of fragile artifact.

Suddenly my vision blurred and the world swirled around me. I was lying in a large bed, completely draped in white. This place was unfamiliar to me, all but dark haze extended from the foot of the bed. The freakishness sent chills down my spine and my heart began to beat erraticly. I didnt care what this was, or where I was, I DESPERATELY wanted my other vision to return. As if my pleas were answered by god, there she was... lying a few feet from me smiling my favourite smile. The same velvet hair, nestled against the stark white pillows half concealing eyes that burned with passion. Instinctively I reached out for her hand and rolled her easily onto my chest so that she was lying on top of me listening intently to my unsteady heartbeat. I held her in my arms so close I could smell her familiar fragrant scent, I did not wish to ever let go of her as I drifted away from the bliss and melancholy back to reality...

...with that my eyes opened and I stared at the familiarity of my bedroom,

longing for my love.
