When the Day Comes Calling..

When the day comes calling
I desperately try to reach out…
…To my dreams
That have troubled me the night prior
…And also to the night 
That has given them a lap to sleep on
…To the sleep
That although never came yesterday
Promises me some rest  tonight.
So that when the day calls again tomorrow
I have tucked in my restless dreams, night, sleep and all
In one small crease under the pillow!!
