I still don't know
if it was a dream.
Even if it was,
let it be a dream.
What I know is that
it won't occur again,
and knowing that
gives me deep pain.
But, I'm more jubilant
than I am sad
because of this experience
that I have had.
I keep on pleading
for these memories to stay,
but, as time passes,
these too shall fade away.
And the joy they gave
will turn a mere memory,
just like a dream,
transient and temporary.
I keep thinking of it
throughout the day,
with a smile on my face
hardly flickering away.
I don't want to know
if it was a dream.
Even if it was,
let it be a dream.
