I hugged you in my dreams last night. It’s been years since I last saw your face and longer since we touched, but I’d recognize you by your hugs anywhere.
Every few months I dream of a reunion between us. Every time we meet, we hug, and it feels as though a piece of my soul is put back in to place. These are the only nights I wake up feeling truly rested.
The amount of comfort it brings me is indescribable and carries forward for the next few days; until you fade away again. The sense of completeness and pure tranquility leaves a mark on my heart. Since the comfort is so real, I can’t help but wonder in which dimension we’ve found each other again.
No matter the dimension, I’m glad. I’m glad our paths crossed in this one, if only for a time shorter than we liked. I’m glad that perhaps they cross again and that the sense of joy is equal there too.
Someday the dreams will stop, the hugs will fade, and life will move on. For now, I need the comfort they bring since I can’t find it here on earth, waking or sleeping, except with you. Someday I’ll find real hugs that do the same.
For now, I’ll see you in dreams.
Hope this finds you well,
