you used to sleep walk.
get dressed in the middle of the night
and go to a different job,
a different home,
a different set of children
a different wife.
they adored you.
how kind you were in your dreamy
trance. you gave them
all the love you were unable
to give when you were awake.
in the morning, you went home.
went back to bed and waited
for the alarm to go off
to start this other life,
the one you couldn't
escape from, except at night.
