( yes I know my titles have been off the last few nights but I think I am like the abstractiveness of then, if abstractiveness is even a word.:)) I cannot sleep, A disturbed drone, secret and deep, screaming violence it never shows its self in silence, It only attacks when..... I cannot sleep, I hear water like giants weep, Running through pipes And chairs above, sounds of all types, Creaking, only when..... I cannot sleep, Callous skin scrapes Floors with no peep prior to now, I think on it, Hard to allow myself to dwell when..... I cannot sleep, Small chair indent forever will keep on the ceiling Rusty grommets As I'm healing, It steals my eyes when..... I cannot sleep, The stars above Dancing, they leap through each other, circles and shapes, Sister, brother Love in two, three, four, I count them when..... I cannot sleep, Crickets near me in my mind, cheep. Off of the tips Fire explodes On your hush lips And I feel it when..... I cannot sleep, The ceiling draws near, and I reap it, while thinking about life, and realizing I'm on the roof..... then again its the same when I sleep.....
