The Boy from My dreams

Generally, when we have bad dreams or nightmares we are either falling from great heights or drowning in a deep sea or are chased or in the worst of cases killed by someone, but in this poem, when the girl has such dreams, they never end up with her crying or screaming in her sleep as a boy saves her every time.


 

Like a knight in shining armor,

In the nightmares I unintentionally harbor,

In the endless dreaded dreams I flow,

Never has he let my hand go,

An enigma of a person

And a noble intrusion he is

 

Eyes as green as the forest

Alluring even from the farthest,

Hair as dark as the midnight sky

And himself tall and high

 

Stood the boy from my dreams,

With his green eyes brimmed with mischievous gleams,

Staring at him with my mouth agape,

As if spellbound with no escape,

I stood in the middle of the school hallway,

With all my emotions scattered away


With a boyish grin,

He walked towards me with elegance,

And exuded confidence

He said-

 

“We finally meet, the girl from my dreams,

With your blue eyes deeper than the endless streams

And golden locks bright like the sun's rays,

You are the idyllic place

In my dark dreams,

A treasure I adore,

For now and forevermore”

If not for dreams, what have we. It was a lovely poem that took me back to days of wonderment and mystery of young love. Thank you.

this whole poem revolves around the dreams and thoughts of a teenage girl, so it might seem cliche and cringy too, constructive feedback is always appreciated : )
