Living a Dream

Drifting in a clear blue gaze
that defines beautiful
as my reflection,
I lay sleeping
in the arms of inspiration,
living a dream long dormant
in the shadow of whispered hope,
bathed in a flood of calm
with the taste of night still lingering
in the approach of morn.

Smoothing sleep
from morning’s eyes
with fingers licked by love
I find myself
trying to make time stand still
on a breath and a wish
while the clocks
can’t make up their mind.

Outside the sky cries
but I don’t even notice.
