My Heavy Eyes Weighted Back

I'm a loser held hostage to
Yet another damn morning,
And I breathe bitterly.

You know I lounge awake
As morning hours melt
Away from me.
I think of you
I imagine her
And I wonder what I could accomplish
If this bloody metronome
Would stop pounding in my ears.

These sleepless weeks
Make me wish every thrumming
Longing and
Hopeless dreaming
Would just
Stop.

Give me silence.
