A Dream Within A Dream
by Edgar Allan Poe 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?
next saturday is prom day.everything's fine as of the moment and i hope it would continue till the prom night.i'm working on my gown and our class dance is fine ,the dance is almost complete and so far i'm doing just fine.and i'm very glad my aunt from illinois gave me 1,500!haha!i dont know why,my mom just told me she did.its a big help,really.^_^ maybe its a grad gift or some sort.well, thanks tita! ^_^
hmm..what else can i tell you?
okay...just let me share my "dream" last dance.i dont know why but the last dance is a very big deal for me.i mean,this is my last prom and i want it to be very special.not that last year's prom wasn't.it was special too but i want this prom to be even more special...
i have a last dance for the last song.howard invited me to dance with him.he was my last dance last year and he was special to me then..very special.well, 'nuff of that.this year though,i'm dreaming of this "last dance".i wish the one special to me will invite me to damce with him when the prom's over.he would bring me back to the ballroom,we would be alone there,dancing.and he would be give me a bouquet of white roses and maybe some other romantic stuff.call me mushy but i really wish this would happen.i really do.but again, i shouldn't get my hopes too high or i might end up depressed.
if this wish will be granted,i would probably be the happiest girl in the world! ^_^ haha! but i really need divine intervention to make this wish come true...hmm..i think that's all for now.i'm really tired.and we still have ti practice tomorrow.i'd better have my "beauty rest" now or i'll be having big eyebags tomorrow .ciao! ^_^
