About the Poem

I wrote this for my husband. I wanted to say it at our wedding but thought it too long, It describes exactly how I feel about him and what a newly married couple wants or needs from one another. We've been married 10 years now and I can say there are hard times but the good times out-weigh.

Our Dream

I need your understanding
Your love, your smile, your touch
I need to know you love me
I need to know how much.

Tomorrow holds no promises
We've known this from the start
But from the minute I saw you
I knew you had won my heart.

I want you here beside me
Now and through the years
Through all the good and bad times
Through smiles and even tears.

Please know how much I love you
And I love the time we share
And I'm hoping we're together
When there is silver in our hair.

So if you really love me
As you say you do
Please hold on to me tightly
And I'll dream this dream with you.

This poem is wonderful. Although, I may still be young in the adult's eyes, I know the meaning of love and this describes it amazingly. I really like your poetry site.

I just wanted to say, that the poem by Sandra Tolson, was a beautiful poem, that had not only hidden meaning behind it but the words of true love and very cherishable heart-warming words, it was a honor reading it and hope to read more from this author soon.

This poem is simple, yet so true. For those of us who don't like poems that are real deep with words we don't uderstand, this poem is perfect and gets the message across clearly.

I thought your poem was outstanding. It was simple but so full of meaning. It was exactly what I was looking for to send to man I love. I couldn't put my feelings into words myself. Thank you for sharing.
