Poetry: Dreams

I am the memory of a name;
A shadow of a face.
Boldly within your dreams I dance;
I cannot leave that place.

I will always be with you,
But I you cannot see;
Except when you are sleeping
And deep among your dreams.

We speak of many things there,
And I shall never roam.
I guard you from your fears there;
Where I have made my home.

I love to sit beside you;
But cannot in the day.
For I am but a shadow
And must then slip away.

When you are here I'm happy;
As happy as can be,
And I am quite content here;
Where love is evergreen.

I only dwell in dreamland;
I cannot leave that place.
For I am but a memory;
The shadow of a face.

    Last night I had a dream
    and you were there with me
    so I held back my scream
    you said, come on, this is our destiny
