we sleep like hours unslept in the eye <br />we wakefully take them to the first of dawn <br />'let something break out' you say <br />and I am silent my eyes are silent <br />my lips are pregnant with sleep <br /> <br />we sleep like leaves forgotten by the tree <br />we rootlessly take them to a garden heart <br />'let something plant us' you say <br />and I am sad my eyes are sad <br />my lips are yearning for sleep <br /> <br />we sleep like lakes moon shattered rays <br />we facelessly list them unto the names <br />'let there be something' you say <br />and I am crying my eyes are crying <br />my lips can deliver no sleep<br /><br />Miroslava Odalovic<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/we-sleep-like-hours-unslept-in-the-eyes/
