Beautiful Nightmare

I saw with eyes unseeing in the darkness

I felt with hands unfeeling at your touch

I walked with feet unmoving into the unknown

I breathed with breath unchilling from no warmth

I heard with ears unhearing at your voice

I soared with spirit unlimited by imagination

I sang with music unrestrained by reality

I smiled with intrigue unknowing who you really were

I fell with weariness unfearful of where I was

I slept with dreams unwoken by your touch

I awoke with peace unshaken by memories

I kissed with love unconditional for you

And I wondered if this was a sweet dream

Or a beautiful nightmare?
