Challenge Ended
Write a poem about a dream from which you get awaken from and wish it lasted longer

A hand is holding mine
We sit on a bench in silence
Peacefully still
Our faces bare of makeup
Clothes plain and comfy
I rest my head on her arm
She doesn't yell at me
For wanting attention
For wanting a hug
For wanting compassion
And nothing further
She leans to kiss my forehead
Breathe in her sugarcookie scent
I smile at her, eyes closed
Waiting
I wake up to the scent of lemon
Candle almost gone out
And lavender, blankets scented
I groan, rolling out of bed
Another day, another month
Another year of solitude
