As I waken slowly from this dream of us,
you fade back into the shadows,
the light of gloomy day revealing
that I am alone
in this bed of desire
after all,
and across the room
the abandoned page lies dim
where once poetry sparkled.
I wash the sleep from my eyes
and set out
reluctantly
to prepare for the coming winter.
