THE DREAMS WILL TAKE ME.

The Dreams Will Take Me

As fast as the dreams will take

Me,

I am defiant.

I am defiant in my waking.

The river is vast as my heart.

The tempest is dim as my ears.

I hear nothing.

I speak nothing.

I am nothing.

Nothing garners all wisdom.

Nothing speaks in the void.

The void is darkness.

I feel around me the night,

And it is dimming.

Facts are as small as I am.

I have not hoped things will

Die down,

But I am beginning to.

I am beginning to see the light

Ahead of me,

So deep and sensual,

And I can swim in it.
