I Have a Thing for the Moon

July 17, 2014

I have a thing for the moon.

I'm scared to go to sleep.

I think I'm scared.

I have to be scared.

That's the only explanation

I'm scared to sleep

Maybe I'll never wake back up.

That's weird to be afraid of

What am I waking up to?

That's the line that scares me.

Maybe I'm scared to go to sleep

I'll never want to wake back up.

And so, I have a thing for the moon.
