Sleep, shivering lion
Let the silence of the warm night
Bring you all the hope you need
Sadness will wait until the morrow
Let the moon
Look down on you with kind eyes
For it knows what it is to be alone
And so tired of shining
Of being cold.
Sleep.
Lie by the river
Wet your brow
Wish the water over you
And breathe clearly for once
Sink
And only swim in the morrow
Sadness can wait
Dream
Live the sunken lives of your ridden days
Watch the stars twinkle on your paws
Never wake till you're ready again
Gentle, shivering lion.

Sometimes being depressed is exhausting and being alone is suffocating. We all need time to let the fever break.
