I had a dream last night
When I awoke from it, I was disappointed it was a dream
Just a dream; yet rich in detail of all I wanted in my life
In this dream, I lived right in the city
But not a city I knew
I met a woman who I became best friends with
We shared many experiences together
A building connection.

We visited museums, zoos and wineries together
We helped each other with everyday emergencies
And we were closer until it was apparent to all
We were a couple but yet we didn't formalise it between us
The dream was beautiful
In this dream I remember saying please don't be a dream.

I was happy, truly happy
In reality love had been proven to be a lie
Trust was a comparative to the experience I had
The dream was one of translucence and kindness.

I remember her face, from light brown hair cut to her shoulders
A wondrous smell I could get lost in
To the feel of her hands in mine.

I am awake now, and slowly this dream is fading
I am hoping to have it again and meet this unknown person
Again, and again
For the overwhelming feeling was that i was happy.

I had a dream last night
The lingering traces are like sparks raising questions
And a hope that I dream of her again
There was no pain, no rejection and no manipulation
There was friendship, love, passion and endurance
A real connection even in the dream state
That I miss having, even if it was a dream.
