Wretched Dreams

My mouth creeked open

old, with nothing wise to say

all to say hello...

all i got out was hello.

i got to sleep crying on my pillow

but my dreams gather up my tears

put them aside, and clear my fears

and as is it slippery

my mouth opened and my voice was not whimpery

i said "ilove you,

oh you heard me,

is that so absurd of me?"

i am feeling, and you know you captured all

i will let loose the lasso now

but then i pull it back on tight

because all i dreamed that is occurring

is nothing but this mornings light

and ill stay in bed today

my eyes creaked closed,revealing a seam

because i do not live

i only dream
