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
