Thief of Dreams
From a sense of fullness
To desolate dreams
In a moment,
a few words spoken,
Spark an undesired liberation,
A fatal freeing from the familiar
progression of life.
Possibility of reversal,
no timely reality.
Yet metaphorical growth
Still within grasp,
Undulating between the light
and the dark.
Acceptance of the dark
Breeding visions of light.
Allowing for beauty and purpose
In the face of unbidden change,
Delivered by the elusive thief of dreams.
