Analysis of In My Dreams



In my dreams I imagine my lover
How I want our love to go further
I dream about him every hour of the day
Wishing he could come visit me and stay
Images of him cloud my mind at night
My constant deep thoughts tell me his love is right
My everlasting visions are sensual
With him our lovemaking is always consentual

After my Bachelors, I had a couple of dead end customer service jobs. more…
