Let Me Dream In You


Let me dream 
in you - 

my length and breadth imbued 
in depthless mystery, my strength 

subsumed in currents infinite 
 - adrift in timeless seas where 

shadow patterns ripple 
peacefully in seamless scenes 

of harmony. Let me indulge in you - 
your bounty feeding me content 

the sustenance I need to grow 
beyond the narrow man who sees 

with angry eyes; encourage me 
with subtle signs, the shuddered 

sighs expressing indolence in tune 
with inner peace, a token glimpse 

of reservoirs of energy unleashed, 
the heat of lava wells that flow 

through faultless veins. Breathe 
for me, release the words 

I need to understand you’ve 
reached surcease but succour 

me with gifts of love - please me 
with promises I may return...
