lifting

 the sun rises

like the moan of a

midnight child

unbidden

calling, tugging

kiss me       one last time

before I wake

you fade

too soon

You did this

Listen to my dream

  Floating in the blue

  calm waters

  deep and dark and cool and moving

I am only me

alone and floating

in the deep blue

You are a whisper all around me

hair like tendrils reaching out

a whisper floating

I am only me and you

moving in the water

free
