BLANKETS

i want my bones to dance like they do on the screen
blissful
careless

where is the peace who's pillow i once shared?
the sweet dreams
the soft arms of a lover
reaching
pleading for my skin
where?
where?

are you lost in the snow?
buried thoughtlessly like a fallen branch
from a tall tall tree
are you there?

are you trapped benieth the ice
like the fishes
whos company i kept not so very long ago?
are you frozen?

do you shiver?
do you wish for warmth?
are you frightened?
do you dream of comfort?

do you dream of me?

i dream of you
on days like these

when skelletons dance
and winters frosty fingers
pin the blankets of snow
and ice
down across the things i know

things like you

out there

somewhere...
