dreaming of hammocks
and hikes, hand-holding
and your hips pressed
against mine, 
i am dreaming.

i am dreaming.

dreams floating,
sleepwalking into
this domain
that is so strange
and so new,
but so you.

hold my hand
into the forest
where you are king,
where i am foreign.

lead us into this space,
and let us dream.

a quiet testimony
to lie awake
in this lucid place,
where we control this,
finally hold this.

a place where my
reveries are delighted
by your face.

my dreams have missed
this place. and they've
missed you.
hues of you
color me nervous
but true--
this is my truth
and this feels right.

your hue
colors my view
through--
this is my truth
and this feels light.

you
color my light
anew--
this is my truth
and this feels like.

like maybe we
have something
we can build.

like maybe we build
a hammock
with our bare hands and,
hike in the sun's view.

--

imagine this with me:
lying together,
over days both familiar, and not.
veering off into slumber,
everything finally coming to rest.
you're asleep on my chest,
only us in this place.
unlike anything before now; we made this.
