Romeo Naces Poet Free verse

You'Ve Rescued Me

I swim through a dream 
   in a sluggish swirling world
      that seems to precede 
         all there is in my waking hours,

and where only the whirling  
   memory of your trusting face 
      seems to somehow see me 
         through  the slow motion 

of aimless, random flux 
   of the unknown, the unknowable, 
      and my own scream seems 
         throughout to reach a peak,

echoing as a fearful falsetto, 
fading off as a muted panic.



Morning sunbeam the tinge 
   of yellow daisies awakens 
      the cold window pane, yet 
        I still recall that in the darkest 

sanctum of a jet-black night, 
   hysterically I struggled to break 
      through an unbreakable, 
        invisible membrane 

of a suffocating bubble 
   in a most terrifying nightmare,
      but I woke up at the soft touch 
         of a tender hand on my face, 

yes, your whisper, and now, 
the  warmth of your embrace !
