early night, oceans dry
it’s the first time in awhile i lost sleep like this
and my eyes just couldn't resist
renewing each trail with every drip
the tears rolled down and kissed my lips
eyes fluttered as they tried to collapse
while the thoughts I muttered tried to elapse
my mind was tired, I thought, or perhaps
it was marking a pathway creating a new maps
chest heaved as I gave a last sigh
wiped all my tears as they whispered goodbye
mind ceased in the middle of its reply
for I had fallen asleep, my ocean ran dry
