I don't sleep well
sometimes.
Sometimes
it takes me hours to fall asleep.
Sometimes
sleep never comes all night.
And so to me those
rare moments
when I can actually
feel myself
slipping
between the two worlds;
drifting off
ever so gently
is a gift.
I am usually just
awake
then asleep.
Or not.
My favourite transition
is to hear Brian's voice -
talking, telling me something
that he probably thinks is important
but I think is lulling.
That itself is rare
considering ninety-nine percent of the time
he is fast asleep for hours
before I make my way to bed.
