Night Road

 

I travelled that night road

for far too long,
riding my bus of dreams

all over town. 
In ceremony,
with fragile faith,
I lit a candle,
hoping to feel your presence,
breathing,
all around.

In memory - once again that magic kiss,

the one that showed me all a kiss could be.

As you left this world, you came to me
as I was sleeping.

With the greatest love,
we set each other
free.

The man of my dreams, from whom I parted in the 1980's, came to me with love in a series of dreams a few years ago. When I looked online, I saw that he had died around that time. In the dreams, we finally got the loving right, and I knew he finally understood all he had meant to me.
