the sound of sleep


I can hear the wordless sound
coming from you when you breathe
thoughts wander through my head
I'm lying here; beside you
but I'm lying here; all alone

'cos I'm thinking of the days
that never came up to brighten our lives;
small flakes whirling through the air in the twilight;
seeing those happy ones, tryin' to catch each others
under the glare of streetlight
when the light breeze tickled our cheeks
and we watched;
deep into our eyes;
thinking now is the time
when a white, lonely flake
whirled through the air, thawed onto my face;

I felt this lonely sprinkling of snow;
ending his dreams
of an eternal flight and twirl;
through endless heavens and winds

I realized myself laying on bed;
you're too far, can never reach to you
