Janetta Harrington Poet Free verse

In Your Shirt

I languish
in my comfort
wearing a old
shirt 
you wore out 
a long time ago

i smile to myself
thinking
how you don't
know ....

what...or who  
i  am...

you seem 
so very certain
and 
you think you know 
me

and you smile....

and i smile....

yet i am inert
in my somnolence 
living  in your old
shirt 

and......as i sleep
renewing my antimation
in your shirt...

and in my dreams 
i continue to smile...
and you smile....
