Was it real? -- a Tuesday Platform Challenge poem inspired by Poe
I had a dream, or was it real
You slipped away without a kiss
Is this the way that we should part
Did you carry a bit of me
A piece of my heart you might keep
A grain like sand stuck to your foot
When I waken will you be here
Head on my pillow like before
If I changed my dream you'd be there
I'll not brush your feet if you've stayed
Those sandy feet, one has a grain
that could be me, piece of my heart

Today I'm linked with Kerry O'Conner at withrealtoads.blogspot.com/2015/07/the-tuesday-platform_14.html
Kerry related to Edgar Allen Poe's poem, Dream within a dream, and suggested as an optional challenge to write our thoughts after reading it. Mine is here.
