Asleep - Awake

[Copied over from my old blog storyteller.blogspirit.com]

I see myself sleep, careless, blank.

I see that dream leaving me.

It took me to places I won't remember.

I see my hand stretching out, trying to hold the dream back,

then it falls down to pull the sheet over.

I see the morning sun measuring my window.

Light slits my eyes, entering me to enlighten me.

I see myself wake up. And, then I go to sleep.
