I Miss You.

[maggot]

I only go there when I sleep
That place where all the familiar things creep and crowd around me.
Drowning out what comes crashing in
I heard a voice crawl across my skin
Per usual I didn't listen

For those seconds or eons I slept
You stood there beside what we'd built
What you'd kept I had forgotten
You saw fortified walls
I felt downtrodden.

Perhaps sensing time was short
I reached for your hand to pull you to safety
To pull you to me
Turning into a pillar of smoke
You wisped away so easily...

And now the sun mounts it's way
Awakened by the cruel reality of day
To you there was something more I needed to say
So I sit here
Dot my eyes
Cross my T's
Count the seconds
Til I sleep
And Pray my dream lets me return
To the time of We
When all is Reborn

Hand in hand
Dream within a dream.
