I Dreamed

I Dreamed 

I had a dream last night
Where i blinked
And you were gone.


A lifetime had passed
Between the two of us
I had become old
And feeble and frail.
the world was so different
Without you there.


I looked for you everywhere
Asked everyone if they’d seen you.
And i cried
As you slipped further and further away.


But i kept going
With my weak little heart
And my teary eyes
Aching body


And i lived for you
For the both of us
For the memory
Of your smile
And the sound of your voice


The pieces of my weak little heart,
Shifting with every stitch,
Every clumsy thread meant to pull me Back together,
Kept pumping
Kept thumping
Kept beating
Kept living,


And i laughed
When i felt our fingers intertwine
For the first time in forever
I laughed until i cried.


And then i woke up,
Uncertain, unsure
If this was a dream come true,
Until i found you,

And my heart healed once more.
