Sleeper, Wake up.
An older one taken out and re-arranged somewhat.
SLEEPER-WAKE-UP-2
He does not know me
Although I wander through his dreams
and leave my calling card at his door,
speak his very words.
He does not know me
Though I move his chest in breath
and surround him in sleep
Though I wake with him at dawn
see through his empty eyes
He
does
not
know
me…

It reads like a psalm, a passage of spiritual inspiration, to me. Or testimonial to the depth of your speaker’s devotion to what empowers her life, gives it meaning. Lovely. 🙂
What a beautiful comment Shelagh. I am very moved 😉
