Nightmare ... Or Dream

Nightmare … Or Dream

She kisses me passionately
Moaning in my ear
I throw her down
Onto our bed
How did I end up here?

The faceless, beautiful woman
With the body only seen in dreams
Who says everything
I want to hear
Makes me feel
How I love to feel
And as I’m diving in between

-           I stop

Then ask myself
Is this really who
I want to be
As I glare at the mirror
Before me
I see
That I’ve never felt
This happy

I see that I’m finally
Expressing what
I feared others would see
That within these four walls
You’ll see all of me
And I’ll be able
To discover every piece
Of you
And we can take any chance
And do anything
Because no one will know
Of the things we do

And before, during, and after it all
You’ll say I love you
And I’ll say
I love you too
Then we’ll cuddle the
Whole night through

And after some time
You’ll begin to fade
As I begin to wake
And I’ll hold, reach, snatch
Frantically at your ghost
Screaming for you to stay

And I still lay in reality
In an unfortunate state
And for her sake
I want to say
It was a nightmare

But I know it was a dream.
