As in Life

I dreamt of you throughout the night ,

Among the \'Dali - esque\'  landscape of jumbled thoughts ;

And you never noticed as in Life , 

My fondest wish for your notice sought.

 

And you had the fresh look of Years since flown ,

For Youth was sporting full dress ;

A Blazing Rose in a Song once known ,

Before the years with their Marring Suppress.

 

For as in Life you nor heed nor care ,

The Heart that aches in Shadows deep;

A Virtues lady so unaware ,

Of the Nightly Hours your presence treat.

 

Yes I dreamt of you throughout the night ,

Aloof and distant you seemed ;

A Shadowy figure, Wispy and Slight ,

Like a Shade bringing joy to a Wandering scene.
