TO HETA

You came back in a dream,

limping - you hadn't died

while I watched; you had

been missing these years,

some faceless stranger

caring for you. He asked

did I want you back, and

of course I wanted,

my mind soared

as I saw you, relieved

even when the stranger implied

that you were, again, dying.

But I had you back, for

a moment, in a dream.
