Day Dream by Jihane Rodriguez
|
I abscond, silently like a dark shadow
as I move through the ambiguous labyrinth of your mind.
You can smell me, yet you can't see me,
even when I am just behind.
I appear in anachronistic phrases
as a ghost that can leave your side.
we amalgamate; we mix; we merge.
and then is you who can't leave my side.
I kiss and seal in a tacit agreement
the edges of your confinement
- as you are only as free as you want to be -
in the taciturn alignment of your mind.
Yet your pristine soul screams back at me.
Attracted. Trap. Driven.
wanting to be free.
Run, fly, swim in my melancholic dream.
Stay, bite, touch; let yourself go with the stream.
Listen. Taste... lick the spring rain off my face.
Look. Feel... can you handle my fervid dream?
