Sleep

Twitching of the eyes starts the night

A cold breeze kisses me on the cheeks

Greeting me for a goodnight's sleep

Yet when the light turns off

The whispers begin to amplify

Touching my skin as my feet get cold

These are my daily company

I tried to let go and keep the lights on

Yet I won't be able to close my eyes

No rest for me, so in the end

I still do the same routine,

I just tried to talk the whispers out

When I needed better sleep
