Why Should I Dream?

All my dreams,
my plans,
the long brooding at times
have disappeared and vanished,
since the time you’re around,
and the heart has woken up
from long repose,
and that whisper,
like a gentle ruffle,
is drawing me into you,
and I,
soaked in your loved,
drenched in your thoughts,
is a new me,
which I am enable to reckon,
sure I am confused,
but I am exultant,
and have enough senses to announce,
why do I need to dream when you are around?
