Jenny Linsel Poet Rhyme

Only In My Dreams

Only In My Dreams

Often times I've seen you
A nameless face in the crowd
Wandering in my dreams
Then you shout my name out loud

Have we met and I`ve forgotten?
Do we have a past?
When I dream of you I'll ask
And then I'll know at last

In my dreams sometimes I hold you
Then you suddenly disappear
I wake up with just a memory
And I wish you were still near

There are nights I think I hear your voice
Laughing in the hall
Then I'm awoken by a sudden noise
And realise you`re not there at all

I wish that you were real
And not only in my dreams
You're a figure in my subconscience
Where everything's not as it seems

Carissa Marie May 9, 2017 at 5:44 PM I actually ADORE this poem. It reminds me of dreams I've had of some familiar stranger (that paradox is incredible, isn't it?), and I love how you've captured the intrigue. Thank you for sharing!
