Yearning

I howl in my sleep

Sauntering through rooms

Of forgotten dreams

I can no longer keep

Failures like footsteps

Chase me down 

Your confidence 

Makes me cower

Your stillness

Makes me restless

Impossible to

Calm this mind 

And quiet the voices

That always echo

Loudly

In this quiet bed

Where my foolishness

Taunts me

And where I yearn

To belong...
