Within a Sacred Dream

Within a book of sacred dreams 
she found a knight's true heart. 
Amidst the dark, a light that gleams; 
romance his words impart. 

They've led her down to an ocean beach 
where somberly she'll wait, 
for love which looms beyond her reach; 
withdrawn by the hands of fate. 

As captain of a faithful crew 
he'll lead them into war 
and reminisce of love he knew 
when docked on homeport's shore. 

A verse where passion's fire is found 
and grows as time goes by, 
but heaven yields no joyful sound; 
instead, the angels cry. 

Two kindred souls from eons past 
converge in this new age. 
With years of rapture's dance amassed, 
they heat this poet's page. 

In pretty mirrors from the heart, 
perhaps she'll find her prize: 
a place where love is sure to start, 
entranced by fiery eyes.
