if night walked on silent feet,
toe to heel, creaking not a board
if darkness rolled slowly, goose down descending
like innocent snow on 2 nd ave
if i was curled, toes tucked in
sheets smelling of cheer and hissing radiator
if my muscles could give way
my mind reboot, chatterless
if sinking was safe, dreams a door way
to shifting sands under summer skies, and salted skin
if i could sleep, could close my eyes
drift into
and there was peace
if you would lay,
still beside me
if you would hold me, while i rest
and keep the wolves at bay
