JUST SLEEP
I can't sleep
with you so far.
I can't sleep
knowing the things
that need to be said
but haven't been
will remain unspoken
at dawn.
I can't sleep
with so much pressing
into my tired brain
begging for release
for just a few hours.
I can't sleep
aware that you
are unaware of how I feel.
I can't sleep
and I can't speak
and I can't spell
but I can dream
that by this time tomorrow
I'll sleep justly.
