~ Cascading Softly ~

Cascading softly, through layers of dreams,
You tumble so gently in time...
Your essence is felt by my spirit, it seems,
As I sleep in deep slumber sublime.

Softly you whisper my name on the breeze,
Carried away on soft clouds...
I almost can touch you, illusive it seems,
Although nothing is spoken out loud.

Oh may I never awake from this moment,
To find an illusion instead....
Just let me slumber, alone in my dreams,
With echoes of you in my head.
