Thoughtful Email #13 – Tonight I slept
We are who we are and driven by passion we sometimes be
Though fear might creep in, and in darkness drown us
We remain for the most part in our dreams so very free
i am thankful for the dreams i have had so far
but none so much as the one i had last night
as soon as into deep slumber i slipped i found myself in a car
driving fast with no sound at all, the wind blowing in my hair
i screamed of happiness but no voice came out.
But suddenly i stopped, and stood outside as the world spun out of control,
i turn around and there she was the woman of my dreams.
i wish i could say i dreamt of her all my life, but truth be told, it was my first time.
all turns black but i and her, as walk towards each other we did.
the first sound came, faded in, the soft beating of my heart urging me towards her.
I walked and so did she, for an endless time without ever reaching each other.
i spoke a thousand words but none were heard, and still i stumbled.
her face, her hair, her eyes, her body... it all moved towards a center that seemed located in me
i trembled, i breathed, i stopped, as suddenly upon me she was.
Her whispering voice, so sweet and soft, flew into the void,
my eager ears reaching out to feel that smooth embrace.
the words did reach, and my mind did fear,
for now, i know who she be, and why she’s here.
“fear not my love, it is not time, for you or me, to be wed in bliss,
but time will come, when you and me shall forever share this bed,
floating in darkness or sinking in light, hand in hand towards the end,
the eternal kiss you shall receive, but tonight, i simply check upon thee”
