In my dreams

the sunlight thread strands of gold and amber

into his dark curls,

and melted his chocolate eyes

into pools of swirling honey,

but he looked at me

like I was the work of art,

a miracle in and of myself.

his hands cupped my cheeks,

which I covered with my own,

tears from my eyes rolled heavy

and seeped through our hands,

prying him from me,

and once far enough,

I watched him dissolve

into sunlight
