After Midnight’s Deeper Sleep

Now.

Closer to midnight

I fret.

Sensing that soon - this search must end

There will not again be the choice

This quest - must pass to another.

 

Even now.

Seeing that my reckoning

Having not happened 

This darkening - must once again be left to be

Happily, un-done!

 

So now - 

May yet give me a way

Free to speed - to let

Tired grip slip mercifully, silently

Towards even deeper...

Deepening...

Sleep.
