In dark dreams therein lay truth’s biggest lie
Where blessed joy with fervent bliss give way
To thoughts of despair, entrapped by closed eyes
Both equal and pure as night is to day
Veiled horror at what was held, now lost
Upon waking in morning’s bright new dawn
To return to the dream at any cost
Before all hope of a love shared is gone
Then to learn that love was there all the while
Its presence thy mind hath barely contained
Exposed for what it is behind a smile
And within, the source shall ever remain

What, in depths of dark sleep from love lost brings?
Such is love known by all these tell-tale things

That is a classic line.
Enjoyed you,

Too true, and so very well told.
A dream literally takes on a life of it's own.

Always so nice to read you, guy~
