This Night I am,
So sleepless and lost,
Lost from sleep and lost in thought.
Moment by moment the darkness fades into light,
And yet no sleep appears to be sight...
I am wandering about.
Though in bed,
I am millions of miles and year and days away.
I remember the past so painfully well.
Sleep seems to beckon to me,
But always at a distance, tonight.
Why am I haunted by my memories?
Why can I not start from a new?
I am restless and dreamless.
I am reminiscent and dying of hurt.
How can I fall,
So softly, quietly, and quickly to sleep?
When all I see,
And hear,
And think of,
Is you?
