as I slept a message wrote itself
just for me
Last night, my eyes opened
waking up a
message
just for me
It was so transcendent
but I couldn’t stay awake
My eyes opened the message
twice
and twice I fell
into the inky arms of
last night
My words are trying to read
the message
written on my sleepy soul
When the words disappear
will I become
the message?
I see a shining new being
sitting in my chest
Who are you?, I ask
I AM
both the question
and the answer
The message breathes in
through my nostrils,
so sure of itself,
like it knows where it’s going
It settles in my heart
without skipping a beat
like it’s right at home
