dreams and visions
I see beyond the shadows of the trees
A vision appears as if from a dream
Golden sunlight shines down on his face
Such a vision hidden in such a place
A bolt of lightning streaks across the sky
Moreover, he has gone with a blink of my eye
I see his shadow hiding amidst the trees
What is his fear? Is it love or is it I?
Hidden deep in the woods among the wild
His vision captured me like the smile of a child
I take a step closer and I see him tense
I wonder what hurt caused him such pain
I reach out and softly touch his skin
As I wonder, will his trust I ever win?
He turns from me and walks away
Fades back into the trees as if in a dream
"I still wonder if he ever learned to trust"
