In Your Dreams

Was it all a sweet dream or just reality?, I sit and ponder that very thought, During the daylight and in the nighttime, Wondering, were we ever there or not? A crescent moon smiled down on me, Shedding it's white light upon the ground, I sat amongst the petals, waiting patiently, And it was there, that me, you found. Lavender flower petals I did pluck, As I was seated atop the green hillside, Does he love me, or does he not?, My love for you, I could not hide. I only saw you as a dark silhouette, A shadow that walked upon the ground, Among silver stars and a midnight sky, Your gentle voice was the only sound. My darkened silhouette was no longer alone, While yellow fireflies around me dance, When you came to join me atop that hill, In the meadow's softly illuminated romance. I was embraced within your arms, As your most tender kiss met mine, On that one warm summer's night, When our kindred spirits did entwine. So sad was I when the time came to part, As the rising sun shined golden upon my hair, Although, what a beautiful dream it was, When I awoke and found you there. Waking Dreams Contest April, 4th, 2014
