I Am Awake Now In The Middle Of The Night Poem by Shalom Freedman

I Am Awake Now In The Middle Of The Night



I AM AWAKE NOW /IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT

I am awake now
In the middle of the night-

The middle of the night
Is the darkest time of all-

I would like to sleep
But I have already slept-

I do not know what to do with the darkness
I do not know what to do with myself-

It is the middle of the night
And I am awake in it-

Darkness inside and darkness out
And I am too awake to sleep.
