Sleep Now

Love now is such a hollow word…
It’s meaningless, cold; even absurd…
You look tired. Are you OK?
Looks like you’ve had a really bad day.
I dug you a nice, deep bed.
You probably need to rest with that nasty bruise on your head.
I know I did a million bad things…
But your indifference was really the same…
Well, take it easy. I hope you finally find your light…
I’ve got to run now before I miss my flight…
