My Dream Catcher

you my beautiful friend
you are a dream catcher
I close my eyes
there you are
right in the middle of my dreams

we are sitting on a log
with our feet soaking
in the great river

you are telling me stories
that make me laugh so hard
my sides hurt

I
I am writing your name
over and over again
in the sand

when the sun sets
the moon begins
we dance on the wind
skipping across the water
without ever getting wet

and when I awake
I awake with a mighty grin
because I know
when night falls
I will be in the arms
of my dream catcher

again

dreams are

Dreams are better than life In reality one does not know Who will stab? And In any case One doesn't damn care If it’s in a dream A dream is a dream And Tomorrow shall come And In your dream Your friend shall too Again come to woo you LOVED ONCE
