She Said I Must Have Been Dreaming

________________________________________________________________________________________________

I was awakened by a hand

I couldn't breath because

it was covering my face

Breathing normaized within seconds

sleep normalized within  minutes

****

She said I must have been dreaming
She said that on the phone

from three thousand
                      miles away

                        But she was wrong

                     Her hand has a very big reach

Almost as big as her heart               

Soon–very soon

Soon–very soon

Soon–very soon
Soon–very soon

We will  be this close:

With no more virtual emotions

or actual miles between us

When all phone calls

will be upstairs/downstairs

conversations
