Soul Encounter

Teddy.15

 

 

He came to me in a sweet dream

whilst he was very much alive

 

his soul was kind and happy and full of love

 

I found this strange because I did know this soul

to be less than kind to me in life

 

yet within nights shadow he was different

 

I felt an overwhelming sense 

 and reassurance that he loved me

 

he wanted to say sorry

something he could never say to anyone whilst awake

 

I've known many people like him

 but never have they visited my dream

 

awaken I did, with a heart full of love and gratitude

 

the next time I saw him

 I gave him the warmest hug that I could

 

I don't know if he had the very same dream of us?

because he hugged me back just a tight

 

we didn't speak, somehow we were connected through the dream

 

now he's gone from life and I've spent much time with my grief

 

dwelling on our encounter…

 

hoping he may visit me again someday in nights’ shadows.

    A special someone made more special by a dreams encounter and true life follow through. The poem is dreamy and wistful although it speaks of grief implying death. It walks in darkness but reveals light. Nicely done Teddy

              What a beautiful and deeply moving piece, Teddy. You were given a tenderness that life had withheld, and you answered it while you still could...that makes the loss hurt, but it also leaves something sacred behind. Truly moving, dearest friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛
