Dreams

I endure the trials of day
To embrace the veil of night
For only in my dreams
Can my world be set right 

With these hours comes insight 
Like windows to my past 
The sands of time suspended
And history be recast 

All that was once lost
Returns to within reach
And memories bring lessons
Tomorrow cannot teach 

Moments although fleeting
Reunite us once again 
But the void causes a tear
That mere visions cannot mend

Paradise interrupted 
By the entrance of the dawn 
Like a whisp of smoke in the breeze
Here … for a moment … then gone
