Dreams of You
When I close my eyes
all my dreams come true.
I have never missed two people
like I’m missing you.
In my dreams you say hello
and you say goodbye.
Why you’re gone when I’m awake,
I just don’t know why.
You both are there together
in dreams I’m with you two.
Waking is the hardest
When I’m missing you.

Oh how things change when waking from a dream. This is so lovely, Christine.

The start of this “When I close my eyes
all my dreams come true” is so simply stated, and it makes the pain of what comes next even more palpable. The tragic lines, “Why you’re gone when I’m awake, I just don’t know why” are so touching.

I like how you paint two worlds for me the beauty and solace of the dream counterposed to the pain of life at times.

I often wonder if it is possible to meet in real with the persons in dream we wish to.

“Waking is the hardest” Yes. Sleep can provide a relief — perhaps even a dream of the loved one right there, lying beside you, walking talking with you….so real you see them in your sleep…only to wake and find that empty space in your world and in your psyche as well.

Dreams are so unsettling at times. Taking us places we haven’t been in awhile.

Yes, especially recurring dreams, which I have often. I can’t even always remember them but I know in my sleep I have been there before.
