His visage blurs and fades,

Through a veil of shimmery haze,

Disappearing altogether every dream,

Leaving tired eyes agleam.

His existence is ephemeral like a shadow,

Why does my heart feel so hollow?

Chest tight, breath tight,

Why the same vision every night.

I reached out my hand, to take his in mine,

His profile became clear, it was time,

He turned altogether and smiled,

I woke up, as the clock chimed.
