Dreaming

 


I dreamt of you

last night.

I held you tight

as a dark tide

engulfed the land,

cursing man to hunt man,

raising hands to bring down

whoever they can.

I dreamt and you were struck.

Knocked down into the mud,

stuck,

I picked you up, and held on

whilst your tears touched

the muck and soil.

 

I realised

in that moment.

That blinked instance.

That our hearts

were forever tied,

like some invisible hands

had pulled the strings

and bound them tight.

I never want to

ever see you hurt

or down,

crying as your light is dulled.

I will shine a spotlight

upon your smile,

like the moon touching

the ground,

and we can raise a cheer, to toast

every happy tear that it brings.

 

I dreamt of you and it was

like my heart was yours

and yours was beating for mine.

The sound waves rippled over the lands

like a pebble dropped in a lake.

Every single moment - I breathed it in.

Every movement I watched in a double take,

swearing to capture it

in my writing every single day.

I pictured clouds amassing,

but I saw you flying through,

dispersing every darkened thought

like they were mere mirages

in a desert haze,

and still the waves of your heart raised

the rhythm of mine

until they were flying tandem

in a sky filled with silver lines.

 

I dreamt of you,

and I knew

in that split chasm of infinity

that you and I were

always meant to be

walking this pathway

in this fragment of future history,

like a figment of some fairytale

that has yet to be written.

And I still see the pigment

of your cheeks,

the blush as I held you,

and the look in your eyes

as you looked into mine

saying it was always true,

that you knew

the moment you met me,

the way I knew

the moment our paths

entwined in a memory,

that our pages were linked in

indelible ink and our stories

would line up until the books

sit collecting dust on a shelf in a library,

many years away in a sunburst sky.
