Thinking of Dreams

Even with his eyes closed 
He could hear the overhead fan 
Cutting through the air 
Pushing a warm night breeze 
Down toward the old bed 
Whatever coolness the room held 
Had long since gone 
Along with all the dreams 
That refused to enter 
It was just one of those nights 
Where sleep never comes 
So he just quietly remained still 
And imagined he was dreaming
