I Have Not Once Dreamt

In all these dreams–
The countless nights of
These fifteen years–
I have not
once
dreamt of you.

That must say more
about my heart
Than the sum of all
my deliberate thoughts.

Change me, I pray,
To long for
You.

Note:  This prayer occurred at a time when the idea of having a “relationship with God” was on the forefront of my mind.
