My Pillow
I planted a seed on my pillow
then watered it with my eyes
cuddled it with my fingertips
swallowed it like my pride
a game of hide and seek
but no one cares to find me
I did stand behind a wall
I didn’t know it would cave in
now I’m a living ghost
and no one knows
my anchor to reality
is faltering
goodbye now my pillow
the only one who ever listened
