Plastic Castles

Under my sheets you are
Sleeping, dreaming without a sound
Just a gentle rhythm in your breath

Before the night closed in on you
your face hidden in my pillow
You asked me what to dream
while slipping into remote oblivion

I dream in castles
Filled with air
The breath of nightfall
Stardust like a halo

I hide in castles
plastic to melt down
This shadow on our day
will keep us balanced

I'll wait here for you
and reclaim the night
Under my sheets
