Poem
Dream My mirrored reflection silently speaks You honor me with your vulnerability Your scars of life Your unhealed wounds of betrayal Dream journals tattoo your body Your open arms of desire call to me With eyes closed I sense Whispers of your silky wings Fluttering against smeared panes of glass Separating us in the night Your voiceless screams Crushed pink musical notes hover close by Magical music envelopes me Dancing sounds emanating from The depths of your kaleidoscope soul A rebirth of desire You are my child My eyes call to you Fragile strands of distance Separate us My child I long to touch you To hug you To comfort you Our palms meet Mirroring one another Rising them above our heads We create a circle of life together Only the transparent looking glass Keeps me from feeling The warmth of your touch I read stories to you You cannot hear me I turn the book around Pressing it to the glass Not knowing if you Can interpret the words Hello my dear child I am here to make you smile I will dance for you I will pantomime I will become a dynamic octopus Changing color and form Before your eyes I reach through the glass As it liquifies and melts Coating my fingertips Hands and arms In a warm embrace I find you in the blur Lifetimes pass Time Inhales Grasping blindly I cup your shoulders Bringing you to me Dissolving all barriers I press you against My beating heart Sweat glides down my cheekbone Caressing your forehead Leaving salty trails Child of mine No greater honor Has been bestowed on me Allow me to help you heal As you have healed me Cherished Line drawings Smiling suns Red Dogs Green Trains Spider webs of glitter Paper mache bowls Painted in Aztec colors Fill my dresser drawer Remembering sugar cookie stars Coated in Thick frosting Sprinkles Burnt edges Many skinned knees Broken spirits Bactine and Bandaids Notes by my bed “I love you Mama” These moments in time Stored in the locket of My heart Forever I kiss you now
