Empath in Slumber

The wind gave a ghostly kiss
Just barely on my sleeping skin
I didn't stir, the dogs let out a sigh
Asleep, but still aware
I sense the world around me
With closed eyes feeling everyone
In dreams while the traffic
Flies along the freeway
Out my window.

I liked this. Highly evocative and so much said in so few words.
