had a

dream

we slept amongst the

pine
the soft moss
damp and sticky in the

morning light

had a

dream

the blue of the sky
turned on
turned bright

when we helped each other
to our feet
stuck together
our arms like dry branches
yet to be cleared
burned for the spring

had a

dream

we were all there
all that was left
all that remained standing
in brown and violet fields
two stark towers
two reliefs
walls of silver

and
when
I woke

I saw nothing
only felt the coolness
of the room
only heard the hum
of the fan
but remembered
the silhouette of our bodies
once in the same position
so I stayed still

I stayed still
