Soon, I’ll sleep again,
I will feel no pain,

For a little time,
Peace will be all mine.

My mind will seek
Freedom from the past,

I’ll be carefree,
Although it will not last.

Soon, I’ll sleep again,
I will feel no pain.
'Soon, I’ll Sleep Again' dates from 2017, beginning life as a song which evolved by degrees into the versified piece featured below, and which accurately reflected my state of mind, even while my mood ultimately lifted.

I felt you leaving
I saw your foot inching out the door

You left
But my world kept turning

I don't know why I'm surprised
give me your heart
etched in a stone
of bethel gray granite
you perfectly hone

carving so intricate
amazing to see
show me a love
an how good it can be

We are all no-one
If we let it all sink in
We will become one

I stand before you

Bare, bold, naked

To hold a mirror

Against your hatred
