In a quiet time in October,
it’s a rainy day.
I dream of you—
regardless of what
you say.
Your one-word storyline
reveals a secret
hidden among the roses—
bleeding from night thorns,
and where rivers flow against the shores.
Aloft in my dreams
where deadly day fires grow,
your pulse lingers
in the wind.
Will I follow . . .
through the open door?
Overlooked
moments unspent
between our restless souls.
I dream of you—
regardless of what
you say.
