I’m sleeping on raw skin
And fire behind my neck
And swollen eyes
And swollen lies
And lucid dreams melting
I’m sleeping on the prospect of open arms
and warm skin
and caffeine in the morning
so my mind can wonder
and burn itself out
and rehydrate with sleep
and put out the ever embers
But you brought me deep sleep once
And I woke up in time to send you on your way
And to burn and scald my skin and heart
And sleep amongst the night fires
