"Once More"

I sat alone in that dark place,
waiting to spot you at any time.
Though being alone I waited with grace,
you told me you'd be there by nine.

All I could hear were voices in my head,
telling me that you were just a fantasy.
That all you were was what I read,
in that book about a tragedy.

Slowly my eyes started to close,
as I fell asleep with me all alone.
The next morning I awoke to find a beautiful rose,
with the sparkling smell of your cologne.

At that point in time I knew I'd reached my goal,
to find once more your inspiring soul.

This is my all time favorite poem that I wrote for an English assignment in middle school and I still can picture what I was imagining was taking place when I wrote it. What do you think this poem is about?
