Meeting in Dreams

As of the night,
I entered my sudden dream.
Spinning, twirling.
Pretending I was the next
Big dance star on television.

But something caught my eye,
Made my dancing cease.
A silence filled the air.
Then she appeared.

Stepping out,
Her lengthy black hair
Was stunning.
Her eyes,
Green and eager for adventure.

She wanted to dance with me,
Yet wouldn't come near.

From there,
I calmly held out my hand.
Though hesitant, she took it.
A part of her,
Choosing to trust me.

We danced, pranced
And paraded dreamland
As if it was forever ours.
Until we were out of breath,
Begging one another for a break.

Oh, dearest!
I met you in my dream tonight.
Just like I said.
I remembered our special dance
As you remembered how suddenly free you felt.

Author's Note

Melissa and I always tell each other how we might see/meet each other in our dreams. I thought it was a cute concept and decided to write about it :)

This is such a lifting, beautiful dance of thought... expressions of purest joy in dreams come alive. You can feel the happiness of those moments... those reflections of freedom... and we all long for that dreamishness in our nights as well. :)

Very beautiful story you painted with your words :)

This is fantastic, your love for her is evident and there's a sweetness to this piece that i simply cannot accomplish in my works, great job!

I've always been fascinated with the idea of "meeting in one's dreams". When I was younger, I studied a little bit about astral projection and how to conciously train the body to dream in a cetain manner. This was a great idea, and I have often said this very same thing to people..."I will see you in my dreams".
