Night Vision

As I fell to sleep last night, I had a vision of you. Standing in front of me as I sat, you were gazing into my eyes. I can’t describe the emotion I saw there exactly. It was a mixture of want and admiration and something else I can’t define but I was moved. You then raised your hand and stroked my cheek with the backs of your fingers. I tilted my head to feel more of you. You turned your hand so I could feel your palm cradle my face and then you brought your lips to mine.

Then you faded away and I felt the loss as I drifted off.
