I miss sleeping
the way you miss the stars
when the sun risesI miss dreaming
the way you miss the sun
when the night comesI miss the morning
the way you miss the moon
when the day comesI miss being awake
the way you miss being asleep
when your alarm ringsMy drooping eyelids
are your crossed fingers
as you blow out the birthday candlesAre you asleep?
I'd tell you my wish
but I don't want to jinx it
