sleep come,
come tonight with all dreams
to fly away owls
encircling my sleep
talking of bees and not birds
sleep come lift my soul into the sky
let my spirit fly off the tree
dive into the sea of laughter
away from the cry of pain, of fear
its like crickets dancing with me
while her mind whirls
in the silence of the night
with me screaming in the rain
