Dreamcatcher
October 12, 2011
Come to me in the dead of the night,
oh keeper of the dreams,
and mark my brow for battle
with the faintness of my heart.
And I will brush your gentle wings
back from your tearing eyes.
I will feel your finger-tips,
and read the fate we share:
the braille from your palms.
You understand my fighting
to understand your stare,
and I am held beneath you
in the fire of your spell
caught within the woven bands
that teach us how to fly.
I see the dawning of the day,
but I will sleep forever,
and feel the net and beads fall down
to my toes,
dreamcatcher.
