In a way, I dreamed of you

Once again, I return to my lost loves. This is about a dream I had regarding one of them the night before Palm Sunday, 2005. I say "regarding" since the girl didn't really appear in the dream.

Late one night,


I sort of had


a dream about you.


 


I dreamed I met


a mutual friend


who said "remember me?"


and dropped your name.


 


She said you'd gone


so far away


and fell on tough times.


 


Gravely ill,


your marriage troubled,


your daughter weeping.


 


A bit of fear


jolted me awake,


in the middle of the night.


 


I held you closer


though you weren't there


my arm around thin air,


the following day in church.


 


Now, I stare


at your name


staring back at me


from the online reunion board.


 


A question haunts my mind


Do I look?


How are you?


I hope you're well.

If we were honest within ourselves we all have had wonderings of old friends, "I wonder if she remembers me? Wonder what happened to her? etc. I know I have. With the internet as it is I've even searched for my old friends and crushes. I'm the sort who always keeps the friends no matter where they are. I'm true to the years.

Blessings,
Susan
