He quivered, wrapped in blankets 

His hands bony and robbed of skin 

I wanted to keep the secret but He knew 

I was foolish 

Calling him back I saw him in my dreams 

Dead even in my imagination 

At the time he would stare at the screen 

Watch cowboys in black and white 

The look in his eyes so taken 

I was foolish 

The nights I read fumbling my words 

He would listen 

I do not know who he was but to me 

I was foolish
