I love you as certain dark things are to be loved, in secret, between the shadow and the soul.” —Pablo Neruda

I have a dream, To escape the grip of solitude's extreme, Soaring high on wings of joy, it seems, In my mind, this dream forever gleams, A beautiful mirage in life's vast scheme. I have a dream, A love so profound, like a flowing stream, A partner's shadow, a cherished team, In my heart, our love shall beam, A soul intertwined, a mutual dream. I have a dream, To find a love that's more than it may seem, Through trials and pains, a love supreme, Hand in hand, a world we'll redeem, Venturing into the unknown, like a vivid dream. At times, reality merges with my dream's regime, Hope shines bright, like a lighthouse's beam, Yet, in the stormy sea of emotions, I deem, Hope may fade, like a distant dream, But as a sailor, I'll hold to hope's redeem. A castaway on a lonely shore, it may seem, Dreams my only refuge, my heart's bloodstream, I'll keep dreaming on, like a timeless theme, For if dreams fade, like a lost sunbeam, I'll wither away, like a sea shell in the ocean's gleam.
