Late at night,
As realization kicks in,
I am suddenly aware,
Of every vein,
And every artery,
I am aware of every organ,
And how often I need to breathe,
And I can hear my heart beat,
And I realize how very mortal I am,
How time is just slipping through my fingers,
But I can't breathe life and happiness into my being,
Just as I cant make my heart stop beating,
In the Dead Of Night.
