Why do I lay awake?
Night after night,
Alone with my thoughts
With my memories
Staring at the clock
Which barely seems to move?
What happens to today?
When it becomes tomorrow
What happens to the minutes?
When they become hours
Why do I ask these questions?
And where do I find my answers
Time waits for no man
Yet stands still for me.

I know why

Because you need to embrace your erotic self, dear. Free your words and your imagination to claim your piece of the universal sensation of lust yearning it's way toward satisfaction in the heart. When you've lived the fulfillment of your desire, even just in your mind and words... Then you can rest there... And sweetly sleep. All the best
