Image for the poem Sleepless

Sleepless

 What kind of man cannot help the loved ones who need him

I feel as nothing more than a wound

Upon the skin of the earth

Contributing only to her bleeding

Mother

Am I the very cancer

Causing a perfect flower to wilt

Stress on fine translucent petals

Please Lord don't force me watch an angel suffer
