I dreamt of you again

Last night, marking my bedpost

In red lipstick. We held hands,

Noticed the snow gathering,

Ate potatoes with cheese,

Commented on a fluffy dog

That crossed our path

And listened to songs we

Both loved. In the dream

You kissed me and

I became a part of you.

As with all dreams, lucidity

Pulled me away from you,

Just as my hand softly

Touched your shoulder.

I could have slept forever.
