I Laid In Bed

I laid in bed Curled up under the blanket Feets that had become warm A cold draft in the room Didn't sleep; couldn't sleep Halfway between summer and winter Nights that had become darker Nights that would become darker The room was dark I knew my way; around this room Tempting to get up Temping to stay; under the blanket Would be nice to fall asleep I laid in bed Knew how it started When I went to bed Knew how it would end Eventually I would get up Quite like a poem Had the start; and the end The rest Just laying there Waiting Under cover
