on nights i cannot sleep

the sound of another chance

Dear Myles, 

on nights I cannot sleep 

all the ways
i’ve fallen short 
keep me awake 

i toss 
i turn 
i wonder 			
if this bed 
be my casket 
this room 
my mausoleum 

and before I know it 
dark gives way to light 

i hear “daddy”
and remember 
I have one more day 
to make it right 

Love, 
Daddy
