like petals
softly falling to the ground
you walk into my dream
make no sound
i look into your eyes
full of feeling
i look into the mirror
deep with meaning
you smile
walk away
i wake up
to another day
in a faraway place
where there is no you
strangers ask
how do you do
i say
i am fine
i think
i left my heart behind

A gentle and heartfelt piece, Sobhana, with acceptance and understanding, and which seems to capture the elusive wistful feelings just beyond words that fade away when we wake up from a dream.
