Sleep

Sleep won't come easy
A hurt heart
Displaced apart
Clock ticks away
one two three...
fear takes  flight
I say a prayer
Forgiveness I'll give
A hope anew
Breath in and out
A trick that won't do
my stomach cringe
my arms tight
Restless within
Wide awake in dark
Sounds of rain outside
Shake this world asunder
A familiar beat
Putting all to rest
But I stay awake
sleep won't come
not so easy now.
