every night

every night
life goes on
a new day's born
in the slumbering ashes of yesterday
friends drift off to neverland
family members take a break in dreams
she sleeps soundly
beautifully
contentedly
every night
life goes on
another morning
twists its body out of the womb of the last
people i love are quiet and dormant
people who love me may even dream of me
she sleeps soundly
gracefully
comfortably
every night
i die
