More Than A Dream

Its noon, having my snack when all of a sudden I'm overcome by the strong urge to sleep.
I can hardly keep my eyes open and my head starts sagging. I stumble from the sitting room and flop onto my bed dead asleep...

I open my eyes and its dark...I'm engulfed in a dark smoke but it has no smell.
As my sight clears I can see forms in the distance way below me...am elevated higher than I can humanly agree to be.
I look up and realize I'm being watched.

The hopelessness, the sadness, the agony, the fear tortures my heart.
My heart is bleeding within me.
I'm crushed by this oppression and just then my eyes are drawn to behold a Being so bright, so pure.

His clear brightness was not permeating the foggy darkness.
His countenance so full of love and yet so much sadness.
He speaks so audibly, yet His lips move not.
I feel His sadness, His tears, His heart breaking.
He averts His clear searching eyes and looks towards the dark moving forms.
With alarm I realise they are the human race.
All are staggering from one place to another seeking elusive relief.
I see Him but they know not He's watching them.
The land is dark...horribly dark...
He turns to look at me..deep in me..and smiles.,,with His eyes, with His lips.

The sun is burning my eyes.
Sleep ebbs from my mind like the tide.
I feel Him. I see Him. The sounds and feeling still resonate within me...
I look at the time, I've been out for twenty minutes.
It was more than a dream...
