Sorrow

I know this room
And there are corridors
The pictures, I have seen before
The statues and those gems in cases
I have wandered by before
Stood there silent and lonely
In a dream of years ago

I know the dark of night is all around me
My eyes are closed, and I am half asleep
My wife breathes gently at my side

But once again this old dream is within me
And I am on the threshold waiting
Wondering, pleased, and fearful
Where do those doors lead
What rooms lie beyond them?
I venture

But my baby moves and tosses
From side to side
And her need calls me to her

Now I stand awake, unseeing
In the dark
And I move towards her cot
I shall not reach her
There is no direction
I shall walk on
