fiddling with
the edges of my tapestry
well past midnight
Provides no solace for the sleepless mind
yet
Turning the fabric
between fingertips
covered in scars from work
lulls me to a place
where I have no sense
where i have no emotions
none of the fear that plagues me 
when i am 
awake
the act of minor fidgeting awakes
her brain;
the part that lies unaware of 
what life really holds
