i heard a voice



i heard a voice

in the restlessness of sleep
i heard a voice
and mistook it for yours
it was whispering
in my ear
that love was just
a silly game
that people play
in the cosmos of seduction
and i guess
i smiled
over the brim of my coffee cup
when just the next morning
i heard you mutter
something indistinct
or something i simply did not hear
because i was fascinated
by the deep red
pencil outline of
your full lips

    Nice. Half sleep plays tricks!

    I see you crept back in very quietly.
