Sleep Awakening Dream


As I walked through the glass
slashing my soul.
Darkness was my robe.

I floated on glitter & clouds
rescued by your eyes,
fragments left behind haunt my lips.

By splitting a personality
we came to be saved,
we came to be whole.

My nails dug a ditch in your back.
Slow motion turns
the look on his face.

We stopped to reconsider.
There's nothing more I can say
that I haven't said again & again.

Sleep in white,
dream in you,
my breath was yours.

We were reborn to each other
but I remembered & had to cry
the rain... the light flashed your face.

Fire & ice
I tore myself apart,
couldn't look you in the eye.

My arms raised up in
glorious redemption
I confessed to you &
you gave me no penance.

I hoped to dance beneath your flesh
but I was awakened by daylight's chimes
once more.
