Slumber

While you were dreaming -
Thoughts of you rolled down my cheek
as these moments have become like years between us.
Were I the moonlight that touches you as softly
that it is my fingers which comb as gently through your hair.
Thus dream me not away my beloved
for I dare to awaken you
- With a kiss.
