DRUGGED BY SLEEP

EAT ME


I ate your heart long ago.
It sure was a tasty treat.
I took mine back after the meal.
And you were a heartless piece of meat.

I should have left your heart to rot inside you.
And let mine loose to wander the world.

Because now mine too has caught the plague
That had been raging inside of you.
And your void
Is hungrier than ever.





VISION


I woke up
My head at the head of the bed. 
The bright rays of a brighter sun
Lighting up more my feet
Than anything else.

I imagine butterflies and the soft smell of 'soggy peat'.
But those are meant for books
And dreams alone.
Right now, here, it is only soggy heat.
