one for aryssa (autistic love)

when you sleep
i wonder:
do you dream?
if you do
i'm sure they
are filled with
colors
that g*d
mixed for your
hands
to paint a door
back to us

when you sing
is it you?
or does the mind
that holds you
captive
offer us golden
notes
to let us know
all birds
will fly free

sometimes
when you sit
passively
i wonder
if you know something
we don't
some great secret
that we could never
hear
or understand

i fear that
you'll never understand
how much i
love you
and the ways you
make me
so afraid

but then

when you grab
my face
and demand my eyes
i stop wondering
and hear your
song
of love
