A Dream, a Kiss

darkness threatens covers all darkness threatens, man's downfall when comes the darkness goes the joy when goes the light goes happy ploy... ...I dreamt a dream just last night past of a happy adventure we took a subconscious repast We took a ride, drove far away we saw places bright, 'pon vistas we fawned the places we went weren't far astray from the place of my mind, tween dark and dawn they weren't so great we stayed not long they felt like fate from care we're gone a strange old house a dark lone cabin twas dark, deserted, a haunted place with furnishings old and dusty, spavined and in this house were you and me alone and happy, from constraint free'd And much else strange there of scenery much that cannot be described and much faded from memory when I returned to the world of life we stole through dens and crept down halls we stood and listened and heard naught but own footfalls then we stood in a moonlit room and in crept the mist we knew it would be soon, dreams hold no risk the light was soft your eyes were bright our die was cast the dream devoured the night we lay sometimes and spoke aloud we walked a bit, to pass the time there was no point yet to be found yet we held hands, a lover's mime the words were silent, voices muted the feelings remained, undisputed the caresses were warm, tender, knowing the comfort strange, yet surely footed when we laughed, with gazes locked we stood in place, all worries stopped when eyes met, we knew we'd missed and gently leaned in, for our kiss
