Lost In A Dream

When I first woke up this morning, a phrase was in my head.  Like a message from a dream.  In those first moments it was clear, and in that hazy half awake stage it had great meaning.  I tried to hold onto it.  But like all dreams, the more awake I became - the more distant it seemed.  Until it was gone. 

I can still feel it there.  Just on the fringes of my waking mind.   But I can't seem to recapture it.  Like chasing a shadow.
