The Dream In the Sky

In this dark and gloomy room, 
staring out the window to the bright 
and mysterious moon. The winking 
stars in the sky, so conceited, above 
the slow and gentle clouds floating 
by. I close my eyes, and dream of her 
and I, in the sky, on those slow and 
gentle clouds, swiftly, gently floating 
by. Holding hands, I hold her tight, 
for the fear of her falling from the 
sky. But if she were to slip, I would 
bet she'd fly on wings of meditation, 
like the angel I know of her to be. But 
on the clouds we quietly lay, gazing 
up upon that bright moon. I look at 
her, thinking to myself. "You are so 
beautiful. I wish we could lay here 
forever." She looks at me, I softly 
say, "I love you." Then, she 
disappears.. I awaken to a tear 
running down my face. I look back 
out the window to that bright and 
mysterious moon.. But, it's gone 
now. Big, puffy, gray clouds cover it.. 
Then, it starts to rain.
