[hometext] => Have you ever had a dream where you know that you are supposed to remember something from it, you learned a valuable lesson, but the second you wake up, it's gone? Here's one example if you haven't....
[bodytext] => I see his face, deep within my dream like state.
I reach for him, but in the distance, his face blurs, And then, disappears. I take chase, but no matter how far, Or how fast, I run, It doesn't make a difference, He has disappeared. The features that I knew by heart Suddenly blend together And take on a new shape. The smoke that carries the briefest image Is suddenly blown away, And then, I see nothing. Waking I look around me, And feel uncharacteristically lonely Because I have met my soul mate Only to have him torn from me In the most peculiar way. It is hard to remind myself That I have yet to meet him, Instead I am looking into the recesses of my mind, Grasping for anything that would, pray tell, Give me one feature to look for, One chism of his personality, But I find it not. Desperately I toss and turn In the predawn Trying to get back asleep, Only to be sucked into the dream once again, And again, I see his face, And again, I walk towards him, And again, he is torn away. The only thing that I can do now is hope, That what my mind knows is true, Even though without you I wake up, One day I will find you. And then, I won't be troubled by the dream anymore, Because when I wake up, you will be beside me.
