Fallen Into A Dream

By: Brooke Miyoko Nitta

I had a dream and you were standing there
The sky lit up by the moon
The air sat still as in a cocoon
Stars reflected in your eyes so clear and blue
The moment was perfect; untouched and true

In love I fell, too suddenly to comprehend
My heart would pound in a perpetually fast rhythm
You made me realize, I never wanted it to end

I had a dream and you were standing there
The wild look your eyes held
The way your thrashed, morning hair felt
I knew at that moment what I sensed, was real
I wondered if this is what you, could feel

In love I fell, too suddenly to comprehend
Sweat would drip from my nervous hands
My heart would only find comfort, when you could understand

I had a dream and you were standing there
Like honey, your sweet words stuck
Soft lips I longed to touch
Your strong embrace I could not leave
I grasped to the moment;
took a deep breath and did not breathe...
