Waking
in the
dead
of night
Trying
to choke
back my
tears
It doesn’t
matter
how much
I fight
I cannot
sleep
through
my fears
"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
Waking
in the
dead
of night
Trying
to choke
back my
tears
It doesn’t
matter
how much
I fight
I cannot
sleep
through
my fears
Sadly beautiful. . . great poem . . .

Fear is a liar, we hate lies, the anguish keeps us awake.
