No Sleepy Heart

Oyen
midnight and tired.

water reminds my skin

that i long for rest;

sleep relieves drudgery

while the eyes are shut

why does sleep

pass by as a moment?

like love

longing

for the next time

the head hits the pillow

to end a day,

to start a day.

but love

neither starts nor stops.

no one day

to distinguish.

lovers' meetings don't end.

only their days

divided by sleep.
