Nursery Insomnia

Goodnight, goodnight.

While you sleep ever so tight,

I’ll be here

waiting

for a soft sleep to embrace me


 

It doesn’t come for the cautious

Instead I’ll hold you so close

and rock you so sweetly

back

and

forth

do you ever miss those moments

where you could sleep soundly before?

    two things

    certain in our lives

    death

    and

    taxes

    until the day we are dead?

    How do we know that we’ll die

    if we are not dead yet?

  • 11:11

    It’s alright

    It’s fine

    It’s 11:11

    the luckiest minute

    of my life

    So don’t waste it

    Hold on for just a minute

    and remind

    yourself you are

    alright

  • Spray-Tanned

    Why did you have to hurt us?

    Again?

    Again?

    ‘Cause when I was young

    there was a chance

    a chance

    to be free

    a chance to see a woman be

    something new and

    different
