Insomnia

Stars and moons aren't meant to walk In the lives of Sun and men. Greying evening gates will dim and bind Keeping them apart. My pale moon flesh Twisted, wrought with sickness Wakes and sleeps only with stars, While my lover and Sun Dream in slumber's throes. No rest is found in darkness For sickly night shadows of day men And so, no sleep will come to me On this night, or any other. As my mind and body grow restless, Begging my lover to wake with moons, Greying gates dim further. Stars and sleepless night creatures will sadly learn, that "I will never rest with the Sun."
