A dream

He set out on his journey full of hope and eager anticipation...

On his way, he met her, her eyes glowing like emeralds...

They came together, enjoying each other with all they had...

They could not be separated for even an instant...

And then she departed suddenly, without a word...

His world, shattered...

His dreams crushed...

He then continued alone...

Worked hard and made a name for himself...

Amassed a fortune...

Living alone...

Respected by all...

Into his old age...

And then she returned...

She was not alone, but with her family...

He asked her why did she leave suddenly...

And she said...

I never left...

Because I was always a memory...

And then he woke up, the clock almost striking dawn...

And wondered, what did I just live through...

And he saw her lying beside him...

And he smiled...
