I Titled a Poem with a Picture

Why did I title a poem with a picture? Because it fit better than a word would. Sometimes pictures can just say it all. Very eloquently too.

Here is the poem (with the kind-of title):

I'm listening

And you know it's true,

But sleep sounds

So inviting.

_I'm wandering

I'm here with you.

Can you tell that

___I am trying?

______ _________I'm mumbling.

______ ______All my speech is slurring.

______ ___ Mumbling...

______ So inviting...

___Eyes closed

_Feels so much better.

Eyes closed,

I can see you better.

Eyes closed.

___ Eyes closed.

______ _I'm sleeping now.

No. I'm back with you.

Your shoulder looks

_So inviting

_I'm leaning now.

Were you saying something?

Was it really

So important?

Can't I SLEEP?

I CAN'T sleep.

___But eyes closed

_Feels so much better.

Eyes closed,

I can hear you better.

Eyes closed.

___ Ears down.

______ Sleep sounds

______ _________So inviting.

Yup. As I was writing it, I realized that there were plenty of potential titles that would work well. But I still think the picture works best.
