When I Am Still Awake

After a night filled with whiskey, brick and cold-

The roof made a hiding spot, a ladder paved in gold.

No one touched me, the spirit stared;

The cement lined walkway dragged me there.

I lied.

My beloved ones believed;

And my make believe life – for its death I grieved.

But there was the sun; a comfort and a creep,

It knows me too well,

When I greet it, it weeps.
