It should just so happen
That she should be here tonight,
Of all the places I've gone
She arrived in my dream.

A special kind of dream,
One that twists and flows,
It is much like life
Is it life?

No, no, no,
It simply can not be.
Reality has never been so kind,
As to lend to me the beauty of one like her.

Have I reached the point,
Where my heart has found love,
Where dream and reality have
Swapped places?

Do my senses deceive me?
Am I to awake?
How will I ever know?
I won't

Or maybe
Just maybe
One kiss
From reality?

I hope

The author's comments:
I usually try and rhyme but I thought that this time I would sort of let my fingers wander across the keyboard, typing as they please. What I have left is an interesting poem, at least I find it interesting.

Really good. Even if it doesn't have a rhyme scheme, it still has that poetic feel around it. Sorry, can't find a better way to describe it :P

btw, can you check out my poem Hidden? Thanks!

I really enjoyed this. I've never read any of your rhyming poems, but the whole "not rhyming" thing totally works for you.  Good job(:
