Here’s a poem that I wrote on July 31, 1995.
The Moonlight Dream
It seemed so real
But it was only a dream
That I can’t figure out what it means
It was me and you
The skies were midnight blue
You were holding my hand
I felt so high
It felt so right
No matter the time of the night
All that stood between us was the moonlight
I woke up with a smile on my face
I stood up, looked around
But you weren’t in your place
I felt so down
It was then I realized it was only
A dream
A moonlight dream
That night I went to bed early
With hopes you’ll be in my dream
I want to figure out what it means
As soon as I finally went to sleep
There you were again
This time in a jeep
I tried to walk towards you
But my shaky knees wouldn’t allow me
I can’t see
Why you had shaken me
It was then I realized it was only
A dream
And I still can’t figure out what it means.
