I dreamt of God

I dreamt of God....

:)

I dreamt of god last night,
In my dream, me and god sat and talked,
He asked me why did in my prayer I say,
That I will give up anything to have him,
I said, “God, I am hopelessly in love”,
That “I need him or else I will die”,
Wouldn’t that make everything else redundant?
God, he smiled, and so did I,
He then asked me, looking deep into my eyes,
He said, “Anything? Even your writings?”
Trying to seal the deal, I jumped, “Yes!, take it God”
“Take it now”, I pleaded,
As his smile faded,
I grew apprehensive,
I angered Him! I thought,
He asked, “ All right my darling,
Tell me this then, allow me your answer,
Would you relinquish your sense of humour too?”
The thing that brings smiles to many,
The source of laughter in your life, as of others,
Even mine, would you give up - “
A vehement “Yes” cut God short.
He didn’t seem startled at all,
He kind of was expecting it,
He was God after all, he knoweth all,
God asked “Why would you make such a sacrifice?,
For what my love, for a boy?” seemed obvious enough,
I said,” for I am nothing without him,
I am nothing but a consortium of his memories,
And I promised myself,
That I would get him for me,
And I would make the necessary sacrifices,
Without blinking an eyelid,
No matter how grand they seem.
God blinked, I didn’t know he did that,
He stared; I think he was giving me time to reconsider,

God drew close, and he whispered in my ear,
“Let me tell you a little secret, my dear”
I grew curious, god wants to share his secrets with me?
Honoured, I nodded. He said,
“the secret is about you”
I titled my head like a well trained dog,
God said, “in a parallel universe,
I had asked a girl a similar question,
But she was different, she was with this boy she was so in love with,
She was fond of him, of her as was he,
They seemed happy to me,
But their request unsettled me, as I was by yours today,
The girl was you, no doubt,
My darling, that girl was you and the boy was he,
But you lived sans laughter, sans creativity,
You had him, but nothing else,
You had none as friend, as confidante,
And you cried every night because of it,
And you prayed, and he prayed with you,
To help you find laughter, and to find something inspired,
And that night, you made this pact with me,
To give him up, for this life that you live now,
You gave each other up,
To be able to find what you have now.”
God paused, “See my lovely, you already are living your wish”
And I realised that night, as I bid God goodbye,
That I am living my dreams.
Lucky me, I am living my dreams.
