Please
Let me sleep
Instead of memories
Playing like silent films
On the ceiling
Got the feeling you were
Always you
And therefore always the
One for me
Too early to say
And far too late
Undertaking such things
Only brings the day
Closer to me
And a lack of shutting eyes
And midnight dreams

Please
Let me keep
A inkling of sanity
Instead of constant
Thoughts of you
Like picture books
With few words
But every line memorized
And studied
Intricately
Not in fear of failure
Kind of in fear of failure
Mostly in fear of
Overthinking
Over loving
Overindulging in you
And to be doomed
To forever stare at ceilings
