Account For Being Tired

What I do take,

makes tomorrow.

Goodbyes, do not happen,

until the next day.

Closed eyes.

Goodbyes.

Until next times.

Why sleep,

only to wake in analysis.

Red eyes; because sleep is

for death.

When your arms go numb,

you find release.

Dark circles.

Light moans.

Sleep deprivation.

Self deprecation.

REALationships.

A man stuck in the clouds,

because walking on solid ground,

will eventually become worn;

cracks form

and spread,

and that is time.

Time makes no mistake.

Time shows the etch lines,

sketched in a face.

The rings on a log.

The ***** jewel.

Words that still resonate.
