Is This a Dream (original poetry)

in #poetry7 years ago (edited)







I walk now through these shadows feeling unseen
Unaware of myself and my gleam
When suddenly a hand grabs hold of mine and I scream
Is this a dream


This hand so warm and so bold
I try to put on a face but I fold


With such a simple touch she breaks down my wall
I stagger and stumble but she stops my fall
She takes my cheek and says “I’ve heard your call”
“Not with your voice but with the sound of your all”


She looks into my eyes and tells me “They have such light”
So simple, so sweet, she staves off the night


She pulls me in and says she feels relief
For she has found another with a heart on their sleeve
This is warmth, this is real, that’s what I believe
And if this is a dream, then let me say, I hope to never leave

Thanks much, I find that expressing myself with poetry is very helpful in understanding my own emotions. It's even better if it makes my readers feel something as well!

I loved it - it stirred emotion in me - thank you for sharing :)
