who are you now?

did i dream
about you last night?
did i roll over and reach out
for the bones
of you,
the flesh
of you? was that you in
the other room,
unable to sleep?
counting sorrows on
your fingers,
and the toes
of your feet.
who are you now?
which mask are you wearing?
what keeps
you away from me?
who is he?
i'll pray for him too.
