Fell Headlong In Love
by Philip F De Pinto
It is her habit
To talk in her sleep
And it is my habit to remain awake
And to listen
And tonight the talk is so exceptional
So poetic in fact that I am compelled
To write it all down
And present it to her in the morning as my own
Not being the wiser
She wept when she read the words
And I weeping along as we fell headlong in love
Owing to something lovely
She shaped in her sleep

PERFECT! |
