The moment before sleep That instant when time is frozen A slow motion picture playing out Caricatures of the world alive in the shadows, swaying Is it in reverse or forward? Somewhere in my mind I can hear the sounds of places long forgotten A whisper, quietly sings through the haze And I strain to hear every word The tones Flowing around me, a cloud of warm air Swaddling my dreams

The Moment Before Sleep
The moment before sleep That instant when time is frozen A slow motion picture playing out Caricatures of the world alive in the shadows, swaying Is it in reverse or forward? Somewhere in my mind I can hear the sounds of places long forgotten A whisper, quietly sings through the haze And I strain to hear every word The tones Flowing around me, a cloud of warm air Swaddling my dreams
