Vigilent Dream

In dreams, I have slept you,
breathing softly of your name.
In tears, I have wept you,
joy and sorrow, both the same.

Stories written told your subtle hint,
Spoken tongue, your faint existence.
Still my walk leads down thresholds, unlit
in search of the vagueness of your truth.

Your soft whispers that remain unquiet,
lache me with every step I assume,
mock me from the corner of my eye.

"Deceitful dreams, they lie,
taunting with illusive bait!",I cry
and yet, in durance vile, wait;
in fitful dreams, I do so lie.

Secrets sung have made their way, intent
seeking my longing soul's vision
Awestrucken I remained, still, quiescent.

Rememberances latch every wall
surrounding me with this burden,aye.
Intruding my solaced grief's domain.

"Are you dream, yet waking,
intruding into my mind;
illusion reflected on wet cheek?"
Reality bellows outside.
