3:54 A.M.

A shot of cough syrup
Hot chamomile and a soft pillow
Close my eyes and I’ll fall asleep
Not gently
Restlessly.
Resentment
Distress
Remorse
Shake me awake
Force my eyes open
And I tremble
Stomach unsettled
Heart sunk way below
Too far to bring up again
Toss and turn
3:54 A.M.
Three words to say to you
Five fingers you waved goodbye
Forever I’ll wonder why.

(2014)
