One night, within a dream,
I saw her smiling, really happy,
and for one small moment,
everything in the world felt right,
I stood beside her,
like I belonged there,
as though it was fate itself
had finally shown mercy to my heart.
Her aroma felt like fresh rain,
her voice gave peace to my silence,
and the sparkle in her eyes,
brightened the dark places
inside my soul.
The way she looked into my eyes.
made me feel weak,
like the world existed
only for the two of us
inside that short dream.
I wished I had never awakened that morning,
I wished that night stretched forever,
because in that dream
she was completely mine.
But when I opened my eyes,
reality hit me hard,
and my heart became silent for a moment
it was empty with her absence.
Yet even then,
I prayed for the dream to return,
just one more time.
So now, every night I wait to sleep
the way lonely souls wait for miracles,
hoping she will find me again
in the only world
where I still belong to her.
