[Our Paper Hearts]
last night,
I had a dream
about us
in the
biggest bathtub;
we were sailing
in paper sailboats,
dressed as sailors,
from
head to toe
in paper
to pass time,
we
wrote
love letters
to each other
on our bleached
clothes
I built
a paper
telescope
so you could
see beyond
me in the
water
You must
have seen
something
more beautiful
than me,
because
you jumped off
our boat
into depths
of
which
your
toes
could
never
reach
I knew
we would
die,
but I
swam
after you.

I hope that making it non-fiction isn't misleading; no, I did not, unfortunately, even sojourn around on a paper sailboat. Now that I think of it, it would be quite a delightful experience.
