I Dreamt Last Night of a Feeling

I dreamt
Last night
Of a Feeling
I dreamt  
Last night
Of a Meeting
          Between you and I

It was comforting
Yet
I was cautious
          'Why are you here?
          You hate me'  

'I need to speak with you'
          'I'm busy' 
'I'll wait'
          I considered…
          'Alright' I nodded consent

You leaned in
          To slip me some skin
                    I thought
I felt your hand slide across 
                   Wrap naturally
                   Matter of factly 
                   Around mine

I felt it mostly 
Firmly
Gently
Along with 
          Your Heart
                 Open
                 Willing
          Secure in a Knowing
                 Of some sort

You waited patiently
          Held my hand Boldly
Until I woke


Why?

Why would I dream such a dream?
          As though our swords had never crossed
          As though our words 
                         Had not struck their final blow
          As though banishment wasn't so    
          And you had been searching
                         Instead
               To find me here
               In this dreaming
               In this feeling
                        Somewhere between
                        Space and time
              Waiting to align
              Myself with you

Perhaps...

Perhaps 
In this dreaming
I encountered Healing
Where hate was Love
And your kindness was mine


Wishing peace in the release of denials and silenced emotions.  If we free ourselves from the pain of judgement and Open to our own Way,  perhaps we might finally find Forever.

I remain,

Lesley
