In My Dreams

The winds are whispering low
As the night touches the sky
Where stars twinkle and glow
Behind clouds of ghostly white

Lying down between the pages
Lulled to sleep, in your own world
A book faded by ages
Where lost memories unfurl

To forget, for a moment
Awake, you'll never be
Our time lost, taken, stolen
Sweet death takes you from me

Let me stay for a while, in sleep
For tomorrow in sorrow, I shall weep

Oh Alesia, what a sadly beautiful poem of the heartache and heartbreak of a lost love. Lovely imagery of longing and mourning where in your dreams you can be together again.. Shining poetry dear friend. Warmest wishes ~Susan
