A Dream

Slumber comes upon me...
My eyes gently close and take me far away.
I feel the breeze awakening me...
But I refuse to submit.
I hear music in my ears...
A melody that stirs my heart...
It gently beats with my heart.
Soon I find myself walking on rose petals...
For that one precious moment...
I was a princess.
I drifted further into the woods...
The sound of running water drew me nearer to my castle...
Sadly, the music faded and the breeze ceased.
My eyes remained shut and searched...
It searched for the melody that journeyed deep within.
