Sleep

I can't sleep. Not because you're away,
Or that my bed is empty without you...
It's not because my mind cannot be still
Or that the darkness is trying to find me.
I can't sleep because the night is unmoving,
Because the moon is once more neverfound...
Because everything's changing yet
Nothing is different and somehow
I can't seem to be still.
I wanted to rummage and rumble and run...
To go far away and never come back
For a while, everything was slimy and black
But I think I survived this attack
And I'm fine. I will always be fine.
The warrior you abandoned 's a lion.
