Just a Dream
ONCE IN A BLUE MOON'S VENTURE
I UNDERTOOK A JOURNEY TO SEEK THAT WHICH I TREASURE
THERE HE WAS AND I WOULDN'T LET MY HEART PONDER
FILLED WITH CRYSTALLINE DELIGHT, MY HEART STARTED TO FLATTER
HIS FACE RECTANGULAR YET SCULPTED, UNLINED AND DELICATE
HIS EYES BROWN YET VIVID AND PALE LIKE A LASER BEAM
HIS SMILE RADIANT AND GENUINE MAKING HIS FACE SPARKLE
HIS BODY ATHLETIC AND REFINED LIKE GOTHIC ART
HE FIXED HIS EYES ON ME RELENTLESSY LIKE A TARANTULA
STARRING AT ME WITH A LURING GAZE
A THOUSAND DIFFERENT SENSATIONS CAME
WAS IT BECAUSE OF THE BREEZE OF THE SERENE NIGHT OR THE TEQUILA?
"I AM...", HE SAID IN A SOFT SLOW VOICE SO ALLURING
THE SOOTHING SOUND OF HIS VOICE SO MELODIOUS AND ENCHANTING
HE DREW CLOSE TO ME CAREFULLY REACHING FOR MY HAND
IN THAT MOMENT OUR HEARTS BLEND
BUT WHY IS THERE A CACOPHONY IN MY HEAD?
AND A PITCHER OF ICE WATER ON MY BED?
ITS MAMA WAKING ME UP, I COULD HEAR IT WITH THE SCREAM
THEN I REALIZED, IT WAS JUST A DREAM
