My eyelids fluttered open
rain pitter pattered gently but steadily in the cemetery
outside my window
It spoke to me, or they spoke to me
“Gloomy monday morning, don’t go, stay with us”
Stay in bed
So I did.
My eyelids closed gracefully
as if I were a doll,
controlled by a puppeteer
Wake up hours later,
still pitter pattering
What have I done?
I’ve missed everything,
seduced back into slumber
Guilt sets in, as the storm clouds pass
I open a book and think
What a silly world I live in
You live in
But I’m not a robot
my eyes flit over the words, like they’re in German
Pillow over my face, and I sleep again
Rock 'n Roam
