I am still asleep

I am still asleep. . . and dreaming 
I glide through the world, 
a white gull held aloft by the sun, 
the ocean, and the blue sky itself. . . 

because of you.

I am still asleep. . . I am the starlight in a bird's eye, 

the shadow of a fairy's wing, 

and a forest, eternally burning. . . 

because of you.

I am still asleep. 

I am a timeless ruby of wine, 

and I sing the pure song of a crystal glass; 

all because you drink from me, 

and you drink deeply.

Life has lost all gravity because of you.
