I had you so close
And you didn’t even know
I cherished every turn of your voice
And thrilled when you laughed
And died at each offered word
Which meant you didn’t long to leave
And I tried not to seem
Too happy
You seem at home
In my darkness
And I love you
Because I know it isn’t easy
And you are so kind
Because you make me feel
Worthy of pinching
Dreams
I saw you
No one else
When I closed my eyes
You saw me
Only me
In my dreams
