When I woke up this morning, my beloved was still asleep, her head resting on the pillow next to mine. She looked beautiful to me with her eyes closed and her hair disheveled. I wanted to wake her up with a kiss, but I could not decide whether to go for the cheek or the forehead. And then I really woke up and realized that I dreamt that I had woken up. My beloved was far, far away. Not even her pillow was within my reach.
