dream

I dream with you
while
you dream of me 
while
I dreamt a dream 
within
whose else dream
but yours

 
Take this kiss upon the brow!
And, in parting from you now,
thus much let me avow —
You are not wrong, who deem
that my days have been a dream;
Yet if hope has flown away
in a night, or in a day,
in a vision, or in none,
is it, therefore, the less gone?  
All that we see or seem
is but a dream within a dream.

I stand amid the roar
of a surf-tormented shore,
and I hold within my hand
grains of the golden sand —
How few! Yet how they creep
through my fingers to the deep,
while I weep — while I weep!
O, God! Can I not grasp 
them with a tighter clasp?
O God! Can I not save
one from the pitiless wave?
Is all that we see or seem
but a dream within a dream?
