Dennis Go - A Friend

A friend I've never seen -
Waving and smiling and laughing.
Hiding all sorrows away
Beneath faint morning smiles.

I dreamt her in the evening...
That same gesture expressed.
Too much of blissfulness
Haunting in excess.

I never saw her again -
Unseen in visions, visible in seams.
Thoughts chide this empty room
As placid as the nighttime chills.

Dennis Go
