And then she came..

Part1
moonlit sky
outside my window
stars blink
curtains fly
rain flows
on and off
with the electricity
crickets scream
a drop falls
on my forehead
i lie down
try to sleep
it never comes
a bat burps
a cat slurps
a frog green
the dark blanket
stares at me
hands wide open
inviting
i do not go
grabbing
at my blanket
feeling cold
rain is heavy
buildings wet
and i sleep
thinking of her
.Part2
Summer heat
and
Yellow grass..
Settling down,
Night comes and stays still.....
Humidity
Sweat beads
and discomfort.
clock ticks....
still ticking,
never stops.
Mosquito whispers
in the ear....
SLEEP....
it says,
but i cant.
Wind swoops in....
cooling the sweat,
taking the mosquito
with it.
And then She comes...
Leaving me asleep....
