You’ve slipped out
of my unconscious
mind
with an ease
I never expected
You’re somewhere
in the shadows
pinning my hopes up with
invisible tape
that a normal life is still
within reach.
Over the past few years my late husband has barely made a cameo appearance in my dreams. I always felt guilty that he stopped being spotlighted so frequently and yet at the same time I needed to leave dreaming space for my future.
