I am a dreamer,
with a whole universe
of worlds in my head.
Sometimes the dreams
escape and take the
form of words.
But my favorite world
is the one where
we make our home,
the one that exists
on this planet.
For here is where
you secretly steal
my dreams and
make them a part
of your soul.
Until the day
I discover them
in your hands
along with the
very things I needed
for them to come true.
I promise I won’t
tell anyone your secret,
that you possess
the power to read my mind,
to somehow understand
the way it works,
and to bring me back
into the real world
where love always awaits.
