Tween Waking and Sleep

I feel I could find everything I left behind Whispered through the canyons of my brain listening to the echoes feeling tearful tremors shaking on the roots of all I find If memories are kind and I hold on in my mind to everything we shared within our souls I'll waken feeling better With my eyes a little wetter as I sail in windy breeze to make me hold Onto the real things as we grow old Within the vagrant breezes of my ever seeking mind On seas of sweet familiar feeling ride I'll tack and come about Closely hauled and leaning out The tiller held behind my bracing knees Just to slip within your arms in lazy ease Sinking into pillows by your side Sleeping is just resting from the loving And dreaming' s just a promise to be kept To mitigate the moments when we wept
