oh god the sleep

This is how I'll die.
Run my body to the ground.
There's no more stress
When you're not around.
It's the meds
And the booze
And the smoke
and Oh God

The sleep.

If I could just quit shaking
and catch my breath,
I know my eyes would
Rest.
It's the want.
Unwavering,
Unquenchable want.
It'll drive me to the
Box in the earth and
Push me up
Through the
Hole in the sky.
