Comatose

I’m swept away
In the sweltering
Storm, you pulled
Me into.

I became your
Loyal companion
Sunlit days,
Midnight hours.

All it took
Was one glance
Toward my path,
My fate was sealed.

Are you a hero?
Are you a villain?
I cannot discern
One from the other.

To ask me that
Would compare
To ask God about
Heaven and hell.

Why is there
Good and evil?
Is our days pure
Happenstance?

I cannot foretell
To these mysteries,
Not when it comes
To you and I.

Why must you
Decide I am
Your salvation?
To our last breath?

It is an enigma
I may never answer
Or comprehend,
In all my dreams.

A dream I will admit
Kept secret in my heart,
I do not want to ever
Wake up from.
