&lt;p&gt;I often have this dream, strange, penetrating,&lt;br/&gt;&lt;span&gt;Of a woman, unknown, whom I love, who loves me,&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;And who’s never, each time, the same exactly,&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Nor, exactly, different: and knows me, is loving.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Oh how she knows me, and my heart, growing&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Clear for her alone, is no longer a problem,&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;For her alone: she alone understands, then,&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;How to cool the sweat of my brow with her weeping.&lt;!-- more --&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Is she dark, blonde, or auburn? – I’ve no idea.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Her name? I remember it’s vibrant and dear,&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;As those of the loved that life has exiled.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Her eyes are the same as a statue’s eyes,&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;And in her voice, distant, serious, mild,&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;The tone of dear voices, those that have died.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
