A Dream

I wink at the bright stars
I squint my eyes and stretch my hands
Towards the stars, and Sun, and Mars
Into the space that has no bounds
Soft wind, a warm refreshing breeze
Hugs, kisses and envelopes me
And wide expanse of azure sea
As if it were pleased to please
Ahead of me waves gently roll
Their salty spray is on my face
And jubilant is now my soul
So happy in the light’s embrace
Sea drops are on my cheeks, forehead
The past is gone without trace?
Come on, I thought that I am dead
There’s no hope, there’s no grace
All of a sudden I awake
It’s pitch dark here, my eyes are gone
It’s cold, it’s all been a mistake
Here where’s no dusk or dawn
Here is no time as one can tell
Here is no hope, here is no sense
The dead however dream as well
I’ll tell you that in confidence
