When I Am Asleep


When I am asleep,
the universe continues unfolding
as if I were not part of its fabric.

When I am awake,
the universe continues expanding
as if my wakefulness were blind.

When I am simply here,
the universe continues calling
as if I were the only one around.

In this vast indifference,
Following your shadow
Leads to an echo of you.

The further away you move
The less you become
And vanish completely.

Wish for some other
To escape these doubles,
And divide by three.
