somebody's dungeon

I turned in my bed
to see my lovers face
his eyes moving quickly
somewhere off in space.

He smiled, then sighed
then he reached up his hand
I thought, where is he
as he walks in dreamland?

He seemed to be reaching
for some unseen ghost
yet with a look of love
like he desired it most.

His hand then closed
he seemed to hold tight
to whatever it was
he had grabbed in the night.

I nudged him just then
and when he came awake
I said, "My darling
what did your hand take"?

I asked him to show me,
"open it you must"
when he did I was amazed
as it contained dream dust.

Sparkles of the dream
that had played in his head
now fell, floating downward
onto the bed.

I realized in that moment
how much I loved this man
who could grab on to a dream
and hold it in his hand.
