only just to sleep
stuck beside myself all night
I hear your echo in my sleep
a simple pro and con of sorts
as I’m trying not to creep
on wanting words and wording wants
past haunting streets and selfless thoughts
present pleasures and forceful taunts
I want only just to sleep.
should have held a clue
and put a hold on cold elation
always falling in
second best to inebriation.
