stay there, closing the gap

u asked me to sleep that day
i didn’t
today i want to
but i can’t
not that sleep eludes me
but i have to walk
work and
talk
with myself
stay there

dont tell me
a twisted tale
o traveller

i have heard many already
but tell me
why did you let
that creeper slip away
from your hold
which was crawling close
to close
the gap
between what is
and ought to be
