I slept till late,

the cat by my side all night.

he was there but I was away

dreaming
ascending
and descending
many hidden staircases
in a large hotel

an old woman led me around
and kept re-settling me in different rooms.

there was a disturbance
that I don't remember now.

she would comfort me, 
and remind me of a person who had loved me
but they had not been in my thoughts, 
not now, 
not in this hotel.

the more we think of those memories, 
the more they are distorted.
