Dream Girl Poem by P.J. Reed

She floats
Outside my window.
Calls softly
In my dreams.
Tells me I am
Not Alone.
Black dress fluttering
All about her.
Glowing face of
Finest Silk.
Watching me through
Shimmery veil.
Scratches window with
Sharpened nails.
Bright eyes begging,
Long tongue licking
Caressing blackened
Rosebud lips.
Waking in a
Dreaming world,
I open window
She flies
In.
Vision of beauty.
A waning moon.
Drawn from Cracks
Inside my mind.
Beckons me with
Long sleeve flapping.
To creaky window sill.
She jumps
Falling
Into Darkness.
Rustling
Sounds of flight.
I follow
Desperate to belong.
Gusts of hope
Blow By.
I jump.
I fall.
The path bleeds red.
As smiling sweetly,
She swoops
To feed.
