The point of view used in "Was it a dream?" is the one of a man totally in love as to the point that he could not conceive life without his loved.
If he had loved her in a more consciously way he might have been able to deal with the fact of her illness and probably things would have been different.
The author communicates feelings about love relationships by describing in detail the many sensations about his loved woman. It was a love almost crazy, desperate and like if nothing else in the world existed.
This kind of feeling is really very risky since the person centers life in that love and if love breaks or one of the couple dies simply life ends up.
