Sleepless Dream

You are like a sleepless dream
Bathed in stardust
That hangs on the words
You speak in my bewitchment
Breaking fast like a rogue wave
Over the banks
Seizing the shore
Like lover leaving-
Never to return

And you carry the bouquet
Of my engagement
Held fast like a moth to a flame
Burnt on a wing I endeavor
To limp all the closer
Until I,
Can taste the fount of your pleasure
And cast my nets to the dawn
Telling the sun “Do not bother”
I have a great light of my own.
