Has Drawn Me
Can’t Sleep Well
Can’t sleep well these nights,
my thoughts keeping me awake,
my dreams seem more like true life,
as though they have lost their splendor, their magnificance,
the mystery of sleep evades my senses,
the dream world that tracks the stars
has fallen to earth swallowed up in the real,
have you seen the sparrow fly away
out from where it hid within its lair?
the daylight drew it out,
as the night has drawn me.
