She came to me in a dream.
Dressed down in flames.
I tried to divert my eyes
but was hooked...
instantly.
Lured...
into something
that I can't grasp.
The heat; intense.
Slumber melted into rude awakenings.

Love that last line, for it so describes the way it happens: the dream fading just as it gets good, and there's nothing we can do to bring it back. Congrats on your silver!

One at times does not want to wake from dreams that make them feel good.

If I had the option, I'd never wake from one of those dreams
