We danced away
under the misty starlight.
I was lost in your eyes.
Oh,
what a night.
We woke up
under sheets of rich
red rose-coloured garments
of silk and lavender.
We kissed,
touched,
and cuddled
through the sound of rain
hitting the roof
and through the roars
of lightning
and thunder.
We strolled
through an enchanted,
rich meadow,
and trekked
through the mountains
all covered with snow.
You looked at me
and told me,
that I should know:
that you love me.
That you wouldn't let me go.
And in that moment,
I said it didn't matter.
That the words weren't necessary.
That they would only get lost,
fragile sound waves obscured
in the chaos of the ether.
Like tears frozen in frost.
I said I could feel it anyway.
I knew it.
That you didn't have to say.
And in that moment,
we were perfect.
Everything was beautiful.
No pain;
except
when *I woke up.
You always wake from dreams.
