The Perfect Gentleman

I've been having this recurring dream lately about a man who I'm infatuated with. I say that because some would call me a "fan" because he is a somewhat well-known person but I'm not. I mean, I've listened to his voice many times for years and it's always affected me the same way; chills throughout my body as I listen to his soothing voice but I've come to realize that since I met him, it's deeper than that. Now mind you, I'm not a celebrity hound and never have been. I see people who have a particular talent that may cause them to be in the spotlight but they're regular people just like me.

Anyway, the dream almost always is the same. I'm courted by this gentleman in ways that I never imagined could happen. Not just the usual holding the door open kind of thing, either. He's the perfect gentleman. He knows what I like and ensures that I have what I need, which is not much. This particular time, we are at a function where he is sorta working so I'm hanging with my friend, TD while he does his thing. Suddenly, one of my favorite songs, "I Love You Just Because" by Anita Baker comes on and the song is dedicated to me. I look around in shock and he appears in front of me and says "I've wanted to tell you this for awhile." At that point, I awaken from the dream. I've tried desperately to fall back asleep to continue the dream from that point to no avail.

*Sigh* Sometimes I wonder if dreams really are meant to come true.
