In My Dreams, I’ll Wait
the weight of sleep beckons to me
like an unsatisfied lover
the sweet serenity of warm fabric curbs my appetite
soothing me steady like a hymn of gospel
daylight burns in the horizon
but the coolness of night engulfs my mind
a realm bending light and time
welcomes my drifting soul
a world of adventure too grand for memory to keep
a home where our spirits meet
songs of birds,
the body stirs
an unknown face a forgotten name
a longing for whom i do not know
and yet my body yearns to feel you again
