Sweet and poignant too.
last night I had a dream
falling leaves swirled
and the smell of campfire
as I walked alone
down a darkened alley
my mind on thoughts
other than the present
at some point
the street lights came on
and you spoke to me
it was all in my head
but you were speaking
and I could hear you
as I listened to catch every word
my face felt wet
and I woke
with my pillow damp
and my heart empty
penwithlit
