Shadow of Light

I sit here watching myself, I feel so alone in this dream-like tale. A thick mist appears, it surrounds me and my reflection. I suddenly feel something touching my soft lips with its warm fingers, they are soft like silk. It whispers softly making my heart begin to race, it becomes a shadow standing in front of me. A light starts to shine as bright as the daylight star, it becomes clear. Suddenly I awake to be back in my room with nothing but moonlight shining in to my silent room. I sit up; it must have been a dream. Slowly a dark shadow grows, it stands at the foot of my bed, my heart begins to race once more. It slowly approaches my side. Gently it sits beside me, my eyes adjust to the dim light, it is my one true love softly whispering words of deeply felt affection and lust.
