At Night

At night

When my part of the world sleeps

Eyes open

Heart closed

Not open for business

Since you left town

I lie

Like an orphan baby

In a lifeless room

A cold bed

With no comfort for my soul

 

Remembering …

 

Is where I find

Something to warm my hands

 

In memory you live in me

And sleep is good there
