as I lay down to sleep
With the thought of you
against my back
I feel warm and safe
Knowing you are near
even as I roll away
Tumbling into the world of dreams
I still can find you
Holding me
Guiding me
As we explore the unknown
The paths we take
In the town
Where I was misdirected
And blocked from crossing certain sectors
Have been open to me now that you've taken my hand
I am learning so much more about myself
From a world distinctly different from my waking
In your realm my perceptions are tested
I am pushed to overcome the Inquisition of who I am and who I can become both here and there
You are still secretive
And your intent still perplexes me
For I do not know what you are grooming me
To be or follow
But now that I have seen your face and held your hand
I wonder if I have been cloaked from you
Have either of us really seen the other before now
Are we both afraid of being vulnerable
And have we spent all this time just learning what it is like to trust and to believe in something you cannot see or hold
