"Alarm clock... Don't ring"

@Uootem

Alarm clock please don't ring...
                                just let me lie here a while.
          it's been way too long
                              since I just lay still and wondered,
                                                                    who we were, how we met;... she and I
                              how far we have drifted apart,
          and was it all just destiny.

Alarm clock please don't ring...
                              just let me be in this silence.
                                                  let me remember her close to me...
                her fragrance like a key, unlocking love...
                                      now unlocking memories, of love-filled days,
        and heart to hearts, and hand holding hand,
                                where I didn't have to see her to admire her beauty,
                so confident was I of sensing that she was near.

Alarm clock please don't ring...
                                    just let me wipe these tears from my face.
          Let me recall the softness of her skin...
                                            accentuated by those little lines, that tell of smiles,
        and those wonderful curves that intensified my desires,
                                                  and her eyes... that lead me to a love
                  I never thought I would find,
                                  Let me recall a time of more laughter
                        and a lot less pain.

Alarm clock please don't ring...
                            let me look inside her... let her look inside me, deeply.
                                                        for from inside of us is were our love first started
          and could be residing still... I know it is in me.
                                  Can she feel the way, she used to feel,
          in our youth, we set out on our journey?

Before you alert me to the new day...
                                  let me write of how blessed I know I am tonight.
          as blessed as any boy could ever hope to be,
                            for I once knew her love was mine... so intimately...
    and though the world tomorrow will still move as fast,
                                    i want to capture this moment of remembered emotions
            so that someday when she reads my poem she will know...
                                                    that each single second of love lasts,
                        long enough to make another memory...
                                        to take with me to my dreaming place
                    my writing place...
                                  to keep a lost love alive.
