Disquiet

Where would you go
If love and hate made one
And your most honest word
Was a lie to her ears

If hope and despair pounded
Synchronised in your chest
And the first step of the day
Was as hard as the last one

And mouths and eyes were shut
But in deep silence and darkness
She still was all of your verses
And the brightest of your sights

Please tell me my friend
And help me to find sleep again
Because my nights are shallow
And I only crave to drown.
