Once upon a windless winged moment,
my heart flew away within a papered prayer.
I searched for you in every returned floating word,
seeking a passionate heart beat.
But you were only a midnight dream.

Facing into the brisk cold breeze upon my knees,
I sought the real of true love’s feel,
delirious passion to steady this ship on an even keel.
But you were only my midnight scream.

Into the setting sunset I swiftly sailed away,
never looking back upon that dreary day
from whence I wandered forever wondering why
...you weren’t there
except in a dream of blue sky.

be glad for the midnight dream
when many go dreamless

agreeing with Michele here and Kacy?
teach me how to look back and not be so sad . . . you seem to do that so well.
