Pain and Weakness
A poem I wrote in 1996:

Dreams

My heart aches for what I dream in dreams
but leave behind on waking.
I hear such music,
feel such love
but wake to such despair.

I dreamt I heard a thousand voices
singing harmonies from God
and woke to fading echoes in the dawn.

I dreamt I found a kindred soul
loved deep within my heart
and woke to empty longing in the dawn.

Is there yet to be a day which dawns
without despair and heartache,
a dawn where hope and joy do not flee.

Need I stay within my dreams
and never wake to see the day
or will love and music someday wake with me.

Stanzas I wrote today:

I dreamt I had both health and vigour
surging through my veins
and woke to pain and weakness in the dawn.

Need I stay within my dreams
and never wake to see the day
or will strength and wellness someday wake with me?
