Excerpt from a Dream

by Everlasting   Sep 11, 2014


Okay, have you ever seen a blank page?
The type that doesn't even have lines.
Just a blank page, have you?

I want my mind to be just like that.
Except that today... oddly enough,
I dreamt with you.

It's like in my dream, you were writing.
Just writing. Writing scribbles. Doodles.
With no sense at all.

And while at it, your hand was moving. It was just moving... And for a moment, I held it with my own. I tried to stop you. Except, that when I did that, something happened, your hand continued moving but this time with my own, and suddenly, the scribbles became letters, the letters became words, till eventually, the words became a drawing of your eyes gazing deeply into mine.

Then I could read you. I read you.
Til my mind became a blank page
with nothing else

but you.

    An interesting title and an interesting title. A
    dream within a reality or a reality within a dream
    to have two souls blend as one and move swiftly
    in sync! I could also hear the writer's voice coming
    through in this piece. Its as if she is talking
    with her other half.

    I especially liked the fourth stanza; as it was
    vividly smooth and touching. The tone, the feelings
    and the smoothness of this whole poem unwrapping
    gives the reader a warm feeling..enjoyed this read!
