Just a Dream I Dream

I don't know how to say it,
Express all it and believe it, 
I don't know if this would be true, 
This dream, last night's dream of us two. 

A lady dressed in green comes up, 
Close to my ear and whispers soft, 
Did you ever hear of my lost pearl, 
That was carried away decades past? 

No, I say with heart in hand
No, I mutter with fear in mind, 
Don't you my readers realize, 
That I was justified to be scared? 

She came closer, smelt of cherry, 
Her voice beautiful, talk of no alike, 
Vividly remember that soft touch, 
On my forehead, but don't you judge! 

I am
A human within an alien, 
With
Dreams within a reality, 
But wait, 
That's just a dream I dream.
