When I awoke from the dream,
I lay as still as the sea on a cloudless day.
Memories of the night before,
Drifted behind my closed eyelids.
Reason burrowed beneath desire,
Her magnetism left me weak, powerless.
The soft hairs of her arm brushed my chest,
Static, a frisson of electricity.
Flush with discovery, two, interwoven,
A soft sigh escaped my lips,
The tree grew through the room,
Unholy, haphazard noises…
Crashing sounds pulled me from my reverie.
My love…
I felt her touch for weeks, months. Her smile yet lingers.
I arise, knowing I never want to awaken fully.
Robin MS was dreaming about the old days of comedy in this story!
