Beautiful and thought-stirring.💜 Love that it seems surrealistic (at least to me), just like a dream. And the equation of reader and dreamer is just *chef's kiss*.👌

Those last three couplets! Especially the "she stirs" line. I love the slipperyness of this poem, the way the identity flows in and out of itself.

This is gorgeous. Love how you capture that state of half awakening when you’re still wrapped in the dream.
