Falling into a Dream

Half dream, half wish whispered in the dark

You smiled
A strange little skip
In my core
I stumble and trip

Light laugh
No judgment given
Acceptance
Such a warm vision

Driven
Throughout my whole day
Back to you
In my thoughts you stay

Can’t get
You out of my head
My mind drifts
To the things unsaid

Once more
See you standing there
Amazed by
How deeply I care

Flutters
Down in my belly
Such lightness
Proves that it’s healthy

Kindness
Radiates from you
Genuine
Every word rings true

Falling
Deeper with each pass
In your eyes
My dreams surpassed

Dear one
Forever want you near
My soul mate
This is crystal clear

Author's Note:
Not every feeling comes from a person; some arrive like echoes from a dream. This piece isn't about someone real, but about the idea of connection: the kind that brushes against the edge of waking and leaves a trace. A moment imagined, not lived but no less vivid for it. — Liora

These pieces come from the work of mending and reigniting, healing from trauma, finding tenderness again, and holding on to the wild, sacred fire that survives every storm.

If my work here speaks to you and you’d like to support it:
– Buy me a coffee – a small boost for the human behind the words.
– Feed the kitties – cover a day’s meals for the colony of feral and free-roamers I care for, and you’ll get my Whiskers in the Dark mini-zine as a thank-you.
