Description
you are the daemon
of slumber

and he never
sleeps –

(like the water he
rises from every time,
always moving

around it.)

you don’t let the
sentiment pass your
grin but this is just
another sense

in which he escapes –
one more way

you’ll never have him

and
it makes you think that
maybe he’s the god of

elusion, and he’ll
dodge every attempt
to pin him in place –

(oh, you know

from your brother’s
beloved butterflies

that you aren’t the
only one left

yearning.)

it's of no consequence.

some things are just
the fates’ design, the
true

illusion found in the hope
that wakes every time his
gaze finds you waiting

at the edge of that
red river.

(and yet –

it is not beyond him
to slip from the grasp
of expectation.

one wiser would forget
the wish that he will
one day find a place to
rest beside you,

but it has always been
your nature

to dream - )
