SHADOW FRIEND

The thoughts become compliant

did just as I said

Off I took my body

and lay down on the bed

Sleep came quickly

As I focused on my breath

In my mind or dream I saw a vision

Of a pretty little girl

Staring at me intently

Standing perfectly still

She looks ethereal, perfect 

Almost like a doll

I recognise her I think

Yes, I know I do

She asks ‘have you missed me’

because Iv missed you…

Brightness invades my sight of her

Into the light she’s gone
