THE DREAM-MY COMPANION

It came to me humbly and snatched my sleep, I then did go to the window and peep, My eyes were wet and my cheeks were red, As if- It was my very mind; which all these days was by me- Fed. It came and quietly vanished, As if- It could see the kingdom of a king banished, I felt it leave me and go, But then, I was so tempted by it, Oh! I woke-up in silence, Then sat up with resilience, Again lied back on the bed, Thinking about it- As if I was eating an apple red. I could feel its birth, With the heat from the flames in the house’s hearth, What a short-life-span it had, Even then, making me behind it- Go like mad! Even in such a short-time, It gave me memories-both sweet as sugar, And sour as a glass of water with lime, But, I still feel- I am a part of it now- We are even then - Always Together.
