Just when I was begining to lose myself completely
To the much longed for sleep
The little mechanical thing beeped.
It went on
And on...
Till I punched it somewhere
To hear a voice thats familiar.

It diffused energy
Excited
Childish

Minutes later
It was a
Different
Similar

It beeped again
The bell rang.
The feet moved out
The ears heard the shout.

Hugs and
Smiles
Laughter and
Squeals

Before long
I begin losing myself again
To an uninterrupted
Sleep.

---

Zipping through the day
In and About
Round and About

The long walks
The mad rush
Let you exist

Time flies
Watches Tick
Deadlines Lie
Bosses Cry

Night casts itself
Can hear the heart beat
The breath deep
All
Let you exist

Walks homeward
The body tired
Wanting to Live
Wanting to Listen
To You
Wanting to Speak
To You
