Works

Until I Awake

You showed up again while I was sleeping
A feeling as much as a face
You ask me all the questions that
I would never answer if I were awake

Your smile haunts my every dream
Frees every unredeemed sentiment
And a memory is given life
It wouldn’t have if I were awake

In this place I belong to you
The way I never could and I feel
The hold you have over my heart
Squeezing tighter until I awake
