One dream, just one dream a week to keep <br />me alive, one dream, just one dream a week <br />to keep me sweet, does not matter how often <br />I die, does not matter that I often cry, just one <br />dream, one hour a week to carry me through <br />the moments of death when all of life fizzles <br />out, when all else desert me and I bleed inside <br /> <br />It just takes one dream a week to keep me so <br />vibrantly alive, to let me know that life goes on <br />after the body is lost, I cannot wait to shed this <br />shell and this life, but while I am alive, I shall <br />live high with passion because I do not need <br />much, just one dream a week, just one smile <br />just one secret glance and one secret touch <br /> <br />Afterwards, when my mind survives my life I <br />shall cherish the sweet thoughts I have known, <br />I shall enjoy every secret sigh, every wonderful <br />feeling of love – this is all it takes, reality is only <br />illusion, there is nothing here, it all lives in the <br />mind and mine is filled with enough romance <br />to last for infinity, and while I am here, serving <br /> <br />Penance for being born, just one dream a week <br />is all it takes to fill my being with light…<br /><br />Margaret Alice<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/2010-07-27-one-dream/
