Dreams That I Feel

I don't know why you're so attractive to me
I mean I must be silly, but no
What it is I can't put my finger on
But it's all right
It doesn't matter much to me

I get taken down to the fantasy of you
Dreams that I feel, are terribly real
And there's nothing to keep my heart silent about
Dreams I make real for pleasure

No one I think pleases me
As much as you do, when I see
The chance to escape away
Sometimes it's just the thing
To imagine you in my reality

Just take me down cause I knew
You were going to
Dreams you did feel
And you're still terribly real
And there's nothing to be frightened of
Dreams you make real for our pleasure

Evermore!

Rock n' Roll and you
Got in me soul
I've never been the same
Since the night before

You slipped
Into my heart
And gradually
Came to the fore

Bang, boom and crashing
Into my world- then
You decided to
Knock on the door

Could I have
Had a chance?
Music beating and
You Beatling into my core

Now I am reeling
In both and all
Of you and tunes
I'll not be bored

Rock N' Roll in my heart
My emotions too
Can the three of us
Be one?  I implore

Now you know it's true
And I quote, 
"I am he as you are he
As you are me and we
Are all together"
I say evermore!

About the Author

Sharon Richards lives in Orlando, FL.  She holds a degree in Broadcasting but her heart is held by John Lennon.  Spending years as a video production assistant and a decade in corporate America one element was consistent, she was always writing. When her business writing collided unexpectedly with her passion for John Lennon’s music, an explosion of creativity resulted.  “I've never been so passionate," Sharon says. " Studying John Lennon changed all that.  Inspiration is certainly at the base of most of my work.  I hope Beatle fans are open to it and enjoy reading my poetry as much as I have enjoyed writing it."  Sharon can also be seen at most Beatlefests promoting her book, Drop Forged Lennon, and its successor due out October 9th --  Drop Forged Lennon- the Other Side.  Check out her website at www.dropforgedlennon.com for details and upcoming poetic happenings with Sharon.
