While I sleep in chaos
I wish you to look
upon a wishing star.
Make a wish
and whisper it softly
in my ear.
As I lay sleeping
whisper in my ear
anything I wouldn’t hear
while I was awake.
While I say asleep;
tell me childhood dreams
and secret yearnings
you would like to share
but feel too embarrassed to speak.
It is surely all right for you.
I shant hear too much
for I am sleeping. . .
and when I awaken
we’ll see how many wishes
I can make come true.
For M.P.
