This Dream, See

I had this dream, see, that we were
falling off of mountaintops, and this other dream,
see, that you were playing music for me, and often
I see you like that.

And I wonder what kind of place, what shape
I take when you close your eyes and if
I'm even there. You don't say, and I think
that I am but you don't say
so sometimes I wonder

what kind of person you think
I am, but I am
done being afraid of people including
myself, and I am done wondering
what I look like when I look at you.

I had this dream, see, when I was small
that I looked in the mirror and I wasn't there.
I should have learned right then
what I am learning now. I am done
with reflections, see, so I close my eyes and
there I am.
