a breath of dampened morning







The cocoon I've spun to rest in

protects against my waking

enveloped in dreams of beauty

as all of me is aching...



there's music on the outside

separate from open sky

that weeps for mornings warmth

indulging night's need to cry...



i'm not lonely in my darkness

my veil is not opaque

nor is a faux mirror

thru which visions i take



i long for the call of you

to rouse me from this deep

moments of sadness seep through

but comfort comes in dream.



the cocoon i've spun has fissures

where a sluice of rain presents

a self of dampened courage

which will harden with your caress



and i long for the call of you

to unravel that part of me

without the growths of wings

i need not to be free



just a touch can slither

the fabric of my dormance

to that bracket encased as memory

from which you've emerged as real.
