ethereal touch
I know it’s been so many months
Since we had last spoken
But I just woke up from a dream at 4:19 AM
It was a dream about you
Where we were together in suburban house
Somwhere famaliar but not yet mine
And I was wondering if you had that dream too
If we occupied some parallel dream world
Like in Alice in Borderland
Which I just finished watching yesterday
Unfortunately
Despite my best efforts
And I really mean my best efforts
Mentally and spiritually
It seems my mind has a way to drifting to you
Even in my unconscious
Which I cannot control
I am confused by the time we shared together
And I wonder what about your presence
I continue to hold onto
Despite all this time between us
Both in body and in spirit
My mind has moved so far from
That weekend late-June
When we met at that cafe on the corner of 39th and Spruce
When everything seemed so close together
And not far away at all from you
Because here in San Francisco
I feel so alone
I feel like I’ve lost touch with all of my friends
Including you
But it feels like you always have a way of getting back to me
And hurting me
As if this lonely life I’m living is not enough
