I wonder
If sleep will ever come easy
Or if every night
For the rest of my life
Will consist of tossing and turning
Of restless body
Of running thoughts
I wonder
If I will ever find peace
In silence
Ever find serenity
In quiet
Wonder
If maybe
The key to curing insomnia
The remedy for my inability to sleep
Lays in the hands of another
In the arms of another
If maybe
Instead of counting sheep
I could count breaths
Count the seconds between our heartbeats
Maybe sleep could come easy
If it came
With love.
