A Poet's Haven

Its one of those strange occurrences that we ( me )
sometimes experiences…
I thought it would have stopped by now…
Its only been a few months…
Nevertheless it continues and probably will never end…
Looking back, I’m not sure when it started, the actual day,
month or even year…
I know it started with her…
Anyway it happens like this…
I can be napping, or in a middle of the night deep sleep…
Not in a dream state, or at least nothing I have
been able to associate with a dream…
My dreams were always about her, with her and always
either sensual, erotic or boarding on kinky…
Now from out of apparently know where…
I will hear a woman’s voice,
clearly feminine and always the same voice…
One I have associated with her for a number of years
based upon many conversations…
Even we argued and stopped talking to each other…
I’m talking weeks, months and then,
out of the blue it would happen again…
I would hear her call out my name,
after a while I took it for being forgiven for just being a man…
She being very liberal and I always have been,
a moderate leaning more right…
Anyway the other night at 2:58 am, well 3:00 am,
the friggen thing constantly loses minutes…
It happened again, woke me from a deep sleep…
It’s like calling out someone’s name who is,
not listening or paying attention…
Okay, I know its more of a guy thing, but we don’t own it…
It seems more like leaving something behind,
a tube of lipstick…
a scented handkerchief…
a napkin with a set of lips imprinted on it…
an excuse to return…
It’s not like I’m going to forget anytime soon…
After all love is eternal…
and eternity is very long time…
Yes, it is her favorite Season,
the Jury is still out… 

#dreams, # love
