I'd like to imagine you awake

I'd like to imagine you awake
there have been constant times
of you sleeping, tirelessly

I'd like to imagine you awake
with wakefulness come the questions
smart and swift

I'd like to imagine you awake
so I can walk side by side
next to the dent in the autumn

I'd like to imagine you awake
for once, I'll get the details
of all cliche's knotted as one

I'd like to imagine you awake
to the sound of normalcy, a coffee
cup gurgling, a true rooster's cry  by dawn

I'd like to imagine you awake
there will be enough time to see you
sleeping, in total resignation to a world beyond me
I'd like to imagine you awake
 living with a moth ridden imagination.
