In lightest twitch, upon the dark
Etching on oak, wait for dawn’s hark.
In common sleep - sigh...

Do You Feel Alone
...Do you feel alone
That a lie from your enemy
He want you to live by your feeling alone
Especially when you are home on you own

Night brief lull in early calm slumber,
While nature's errs hurled into good-bye;

Chop up the onion
Slice up the bread
Bring out the salmon
Bright pinkly dead
Wafer the cumber
Juicy and green

As I'm unwinding
With the light
No longer blinding
Comes my plight
Which was residing
Out of sight
But only hiding
In the distance
I hear it creep
Though resistant

Does recall her from the land of slumber?
What does announce that the night’s gone
To release her from each night’s cumber?
