The Hour That Stands Still

All Tired
    No Rest
Quiet time
    As each hour drags on
No time or sleep at all
Stand still
    It's quiet again
Just the sound of the cold wind
    Leaves start to fall
Then the rain comes
    Stormy awake
Then the pain comes
    Breathing loud
Yet standing still
    Moving around
Then bend their will
    It get quiet again!
