“Unconscious”

“Unconscious”

I dreamt of you again 

Last night

You let my dog out

From the back gate

A mouse crawled into my bed

You smiled with your eyes

Looking at someone else

You told my mom I was dead

You stood in a dark corner of the yard

Motionless and silent

Your appearance unfamiliar

You laughed in my 

Ever-changing room

I sat on the steps of our camp trailer

Nobody was there

I cried in an empty park

I heard you whisper lies

I tried to contact you

You couldn’t be reached

I could still hear your thoughts

When I woke up

My tears were real

How do I turn off my unconscious mind
