sleep

Last one awake.
Street lights leaking through my curtain.
Last one awake.
The creeking of the room.

Close your eyes.
I'll sleep soon, I'm certain.
Close your eyes.
But instead you share a secret with the moon.

It's so silent.
You blink at open ceiling.
It's so silent.
You roll in your sheets.

A secret.
That's not as appealing.
A secret.
That when the sun comes, it's obsolete.
