Restless
RestlessThe night falls
my eyes grow heavy
I lay myself down upon
my empty bed
Restless heart be still
Remnants of tantalizing words
dance in my head
So far away are you
and yet so close by
The night brings no comfort
for dreams are scattered
They run across my mind
My hand passes
along my skin
Up and over to my heart
where it rests
Feeling the pulse
deep breaths at will
I leave this sleepless night behind
