I Dreamed of You

One night fell a star, a tear of ice, from the eye of an angel and enclosed the earth a hydrogen mantle. The world stood still in vested prayer. Cold axis spun the globe around the sun, dissolved the snow without resistance, I dreamed of you. My shadow grew faint, I slept in the heat. I dreamed of you in my evolution from chill to warmth and the sadness swelled to court the day. In spite of the sun I could not forget. You were not there When I dreamed of you, so let the dreamer have his day, unwind with sadness. Denial forsaken for this is the way it has to be, this is how it is for me.
