Still soft asleep
I would cover her body in words
Ravish the silk at her neck
Yet such speech might rouse her
The moon peeks in and taps her wrist
I cannot kill dreams
I’ve not dreamed myself
My nurse stirs
Perhaps my muttered curses
Will buy not love but less pain
Gain a short joined truce
Betray me to that most passionate seduction
The delirious fantasy of hope
