There are lights beyond, I dream.
Someone faintly ascends
wooden steps, creaking like old
age, and steals the amber drizzling
across half-open books, ageless.
Hey, come back, the words
softly crackle on my tongue.
Sleep, a word slips gently
into sleep, where the lights
flow once more, like a river.

This one really makes a strong impression on me. I wish I could quantify further than this is beautiful.
More than beautiful, this is delicate. Like a butterfly in a palm. Or perhaps a moth.
Flow once more, like a river.
..sigh.
