Description
The dream itself was not bad,
only waking up to reality and
realizing that I don’t have you
by my side.
I reached for you in the night, but
you were not there.

A spirit came to me in a dream,
He smiled like you,
talked like you,
laughed like you.
But when I reached for him,
he dissolved into mist
with your smile on his lips
and a whisper,
“He loves you.”

I woke up, staring
at the feathers of my dreamcatcher.
My face was wet.
I couldn’t fall
back to sleep.
