"I have dreamed a dream...and now that dream is gone from me"
-Daniel 2:3

I dreamt once

There was a spark of light
and it was something
I followed it and had to know it
I followed it forever

I dreamt once

I found the light
and marvelled at it
I studied and pondered
I thought about touching it
I thought about it forever

I dreamt once

I touched the light
and it touched me
It was warm
it was forgiving
it was forever

I dreamt once

The light became my eyes
I was allowed to permeate
and it was forever

I dreamt once
that I woke up and the light was gone
The warmth was gone
and it was empty
empty forever

I dreamt once

that I could know the light
but there is no forever
is there?

I don't want to dream anymore...

B,

O, the poignancy rings in every heartfelt word--beaufifully penned, thought provoking piece. Never, ever give up on hopes OR dreams. :) And keep searching for the Light--the wait is worth it, believe me. :)

Some days are like that, but dreams always go on, no matter how they displease us. There is no forever in this world only in the next. As always Brian ( got it right this time LOL} you stir the gray matter in my dome.
