Tonight I will dream

Tonight I will dream the strangest dreams. 
I will say not "I am" but "I am yours" 
For otherwise the statement is merely axiomatic. 
Tonight I will dream the strangest dreams 
And the absolute exists within the relative
Which exists within the absolute.
I will say not, "Do I dare" but "I am alive" 
And "I recognize" and "I know" and most importantly 
"I love therefore I am." 
Do I need to say the I before I can say I love you? 
Or is love the bridge between I and You that makes both come to life? 
Tonight I will dream strangest dreams 
And in my delirious expectation 
Will arise a palace of love 
From which will be glimpsed a new world. 
Tonight I will dream strangest dreams 
Of a cobweb that will shine itself through me 
And with its unrelenting viscosity reveal to the world the creatures it holds. 
It is not I 
It is not you 
It is not everything and nothing 
It is just life spread between tree limbs and flapping in the wind 
Ensnaring what flies. 
Only today 
This evening 
As the sun goes down over the Potomac 
I will tell you 
How tonight I will dream the strangest dreams 
About love that lives through us both 
And illuminates souls with its light.
