Far From Me

365 Days of Creativity

day fifty nine

Sleep;             
Your eyes are closed
         and tightly
                 squeezed
to shut the light
         too bright
you whisper
         reach for my hand
it's rough and cold
         too alien
     for you to hold
         pushed away,
                  I understand
If eyes were closed
my lids like yours
I too would shy
                         away from          ice.

Your dreams stay 
                   quiet
Your lips lay
                  closed
Your skin so 
                friendly
but I, too bold
         shall sit and
                     wait
       shall stay for
                    days
while thoughts so
                    easy
hold 
you
close
