I hear them throw the paper
another sleepless night
the sun isn't up but
the birds are

the world will wake up  
soon
to carry on with their daily lives
coffee, cars, traffic

news will have forecast, heroes,
and stories
moment of silence
for all lost in tragedy

the light of day
hitting over the hills
good morning earth
become un-still

but now I will close my eyes
while you rise
I will dream
while you proceed

I will join soon
enough
my friends
don't wait for me
