A Dream
You’re just a flicker
A flash of light.
Face of memory
Then, out of sight.
A dream
Seconds of reality.
You’re speaking
Then, reaching.
Safety of slumber
Darkness of night.
Billows of down
Safety surrounds.
I want to touch
Feel your hand.
I’m afraid
Please understand.
You’re just a flicker
A flash of light.
Face of memory
Then, out of sight.
