What do we dream about? Well, I certainly know that at the moment I dream of being with someone. I dream of waking up to see their smile and kiss their cheek. This poem I wrote a while back talks about my dreams of someone. But I think the underlying message is that even these dreams are simply dreams:
A Dream Of A Dream
I wake longing for your haunting touch
my thoughts unkissed by your tenderness
lie in tatters beneath a blank canvas,
your ethereal light, golden in my eyes
wanes, shadowed by a purple sunrise
whilst slender fingers slip from mine
leaving nothing but the ghosts of my
unending, enduring dreams of you.
What do you all think?
Loads of love,

I like this poem and your Alexander story as well. Apparently you like creative writing. Keep at it. :)
ReplyDeletei love it, you captured that moment in time when the real that is the dream becomes a mist and vanishes from the conscious leaving us with a longing for what we can't remember
ReplyDeleteThat is very evocative.
ReplyDeleteAhhh, that early morning moment when reality hits. You capture it so well.
