Passing thoughts, this too shall pass-

My feelings
keep me awake at night, most nights

Being able to analyze
your inner agony
is a dire necessity

Sadness leaks from my eyelids
Sleep is my refuge

To esacape, to be able to escape

Into a place without such weight 

falling upon you every second
until you wake

What a beautiful thing it must be,

To close your eyes

Without such thoughts

Of never waking up
