Always Daydreams

Airy and passive and soft
as a dream but
it is not

Reach out to the void
contained in slumber but
it is naught

Divorced from a simple state
that takes you so simply
but when you ask her hand
she is naught

Keeps me alive much more than I want for
nagging my attention
for just one more
moment then for
another until
I
lose
my
mind
