Dreaming...
I had a dream,
Faint and true,
That you told another girl, "I love you".
So real was this dream, that when I awoke, I found
A figure standing beside me,
In a lace blue ball gown.
"He loves you," she said, as though reading my thoughts,
"No he doesn't!" I cried, as she ran off.
This girl was my truth,
The only one I'd found,
Who'd tell me right out,
And not let me down.
So, as I look in the glass,
Through the fog in the trees,
I see that girl,
And she was me.
I entered this in the Iliad Press Poetry Contest on September 30th. Wish me luck!
