Awake

I find I'm whispering
to myself, lips unmoving
for I fear a summoning
to a guilty plea; just me.

I feel chained never linked
to the mission I embraced,
laying open who I am.
Surrendering totally.

Landscapes I'd call to mind,
dreaming of the flesh on bones,
framing my kaleidoscope.
This make-believe destiny.

Now if I'm not crying
I pretend you hold my hand,
instead of laying with me.
So lost in our history.

    This was amazingly sad and moving, it almost put me in tears with the ending and the depth where you took the prompt. Thanks for entering and good luck.

    Love
