Sleep Deprivation

Heavy eyes

Tired legs

Three puffs later,

And I am dazed.

Sleep deprivation,

Nothing herbal,

But my life is a case.

Case of unknown worries,

And unsaid words.

Whispers I've only heard.

Surrounded by faces that blurred.

Rum smells,

Through the air.

Your hand on my knee,

A cross with no faith.

Whispers,

Do you love me?

But how am I suppose to love you,

If you're afraid to break me.
