In my dreams,
Lie your sweet perfection…
The truest love song ever written,
Brightest candle ever lit,
Fullest moon in darkest night.
Pretending to wish you by my side…
Just a game,
For my heart already knows,
Perfect Reality,
Could not survive harsh daylight.
Still, I find, sweet dreams of you,
Keep me going, striving, reaching, growing,
Beyond surviving…
For these untainted reveries of you,
Lay nestled inside… a perfect world of bliss;
My Future Heaven.
-Gilda Patricia
