My sister came to me...

In My Dreams

by Boogienights

Last night I dreamed my sister and I talked, 
the two of us had lots of things to say.
Then through a lovely garden we both walked,
enjoying nature on that spring like day.

I looked at her and asked, "How can this be?",
that I could take her hand and feel her touch.
She pulled me close and said she came to me,
because she knew I missed her oh so much.

How many years it's been, I can't recall,
that she left me behind with wounds so deep,
and guilty of my part that caused her fall,
her soul rose up when she died in her sleep.

She smiled and said she knew my query,
and though unsaid, she knew what it would be,
"There is no blame to place," her eyes got teary,
then said she'd have to say goodbye to me.

Last night I dreamed my sister and I talked,
it was a dream I did not want to end.
If once again, through gardens we could walk,
then all my hours in those dreams I'd spend.

But life calls out and I must heed the call,
there's many things that I have left to do.
Do I deserve forgiveness? Not at all.
But thank you dearest sister, I love you.
