the REMINDER :poetry

Sleeping Dead

I walked in but her head hung low
And lay still
That confused feeling in me
Entangled as my head banged
With outrageous fear
My heart beat so loud that it could be
Heard a thousand miles away

Her eyes closed so tight
As though heated together by a
professional seamstress
Again a confused feeling in me
Entangled
My heart racing with the speed of light
Like flash
Pushing me to the edge in
Absolute panic

Her body so still as though she was stuck
to the comfortable surface
So still she lay and unmovable
Sweat trickled down my temples
As fear encamped me
my body trembled uncontrollably
like a willow blown by the wind

Suddenly( the world around me
Stood still and my eyes notice
The gentle rise and fall of her chest
And as the wind blow rudely
Interrupting

Her finger moved
A slow tap it made and then
Her feet jerked
Just as her eyes open and
Her head lazily raised from
Her bed

This sleep!
You made her so unconscious
That in just a minute I thought
She had died
