For Erin Sheppard; only for you. 

I have seen you before,
Perhaps in a dream?

A dreamt dreamer who dreams with me?
A lover from another life, another plane?

Or a figment of my fragmented thoughts?
A place in my mind accessible only here...

In The deepest of dreams?

No. I know you...
I know we have met, long ago..

I have seen you, and witnessed your beauty,
Yet I am blind to your face; 

You remain forever unseen, but felt.
Unheard, yet loud. 

Loudly enough to wake me.
If I  allowed you to...

But, I want to stay here,
In the dark.

I want to lie here,
With you, in the quiet places and spaces

Of The Deepest Dream.
