I can not sleep
I toss and turn night after night
I have gone 4 long days
Without sleep

Exhaustion racks my body
I am a zombie
So tired

Why is sleep eluding me
What fears are keeping me awake

Fears of being small
Fears of my father
No

These are not the fears of present
I fear of losing you
You have been mine for so long
Can I have a life without you
Am I strong enough

I fear not
