Dream

He closed his eyes, Hoping to dream, To catch a glimpse, Of that which he longfully wished, And he gazed into the darkness, That had befallen the yonder stars, Seeing but unable to see.... He clambered for the light, Promised at the tunnel's end, But try as he might, Reaching out, beckoning, Like the light, he faded away, And at the end, it dawned on him, It was just but a dream !!
