A DREAM.

  • ONLY a dream, a beautiful baseless dream;
  • Only a bright
  • Flash from your eyes, a brief electrical gleam,
  • Charged with delight.
  • Only a waking, alone, in the moon’s last gleam
  • Fading from sight;
  • Only a flooding of tears that shudder and stream
  • Fast through the night.
