sleeping insecurities

Late night conversations
breeds inconsolable insomnia
lead eyes drag me deep into false dreams
awaking to confusion and half words

Pride keeps the conversation at bay
sinking as it struggles to find anchor
Your words swirl in my subconcious

Penetrating my dreams
making them into sub-fantasies
masking among real ones
i want to yell poser!

but i shuffle awake
smile and ask clarifying questions
to hide my sleeping insecurities.
