It's never dark enough.
Light slips through the window
From the street lights and the stars.
It's never quiet enough.
Sound pushes through the walls
From the roads and the houses.
It's never warm enough.
Cold seeps through the blankets
From the wind and the fear.
It's never lonely enough.
Voices whisper through the dark
From the shadows and the corners.
It's never enough.
I'm awake through the night
From sundown to sunrise.
