A Little Coma ( …of my own)Edit 1. chris,emily, emma

I don't think you need to state "of my own" in your title

I’m glad you came. I knew you would. I’ve been expecting you.
Sorry it’s so dark in here. I closed my eyes some time ago,
Ago, a month...who knows. Although I like the repetition of the ending lines, I think you need something before "Ago" on this line, "A month ago, year ago" maybe?

What will happen? Have you a plan? I rather hoped you might.
Funny though, my talking seems to make the moments pass away.
Pass on, pass by…pass over.If you're in a coma, are you really talking? How about "my dreaming" or something similar? "My silent imagination"?

It’s not that no one talks to me, I hear them call my name;
I listen to the voices ask why is it that he sleeps so long.
So long, goodbye…farewell. I like the line break "so long" with the next line starting at "so long, goodbye."

I need to ask, while you’re still here, before you go away,
if you are me. Does that sound odd? And if you are, then who am I?
Am I, was I...I am. I think this is your weakest stanza. It seems like it's maybe trying a little too hard to be existential.

Inside my head I start to lose the freedom that this cave provides.
From out of warm and breathless night I watch an alabaster dawn.
Dawn on, on me…I wake.This is the strongest stanza, although I don't like the repetition of "on me"... I think the stanza is strong enough on its own without that.

I’m glad you came. I knew you would. I’ve dreamt of you so long.
Familiar face, beautiful eyes, but why the tears? I’m back with you.
With you, with you…and me.I like the way you come full circle here, but try a different word besides "beautiful"... it's very cliche.
