Sleep, or something else quite calming seeps into my veins
Soporific, exotic, quixotic –
your free spirit kindles the kindred flame within my own heart,
and you tell me that you are glad that I exist
And then you let me in on a little secret
Together we fly away, in an airplane and only the two of us can feel the air
Streamlining through an atmosphere in which only we can breathe,
the two of us
and I forget how to say your name without a gasp of air escaping through my parted lips
But yet, I never forget
How to smile.
