sleepless through the night
counting heartbeats, pass and present
whispering till dawn

So well done. This is often how I try to settle myself back into sleep. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't....Thanks for this.

Lovers, fall asleep.
Someone will awaken you
just before the dawn.

We feel the same way when I am also sleepless...:)

I might try this, Melanie. I can't conjure up any sheep to count but I can hear my heart (throbs) if my ear is on my pillow.

Amity, so true. It is better then sheep. It's more romantic to think each breath, each heartbeat binds lovers forever.

Sweet friend. All you have to do is slow your breath, listen and count. It would really be wonderful to count the stars of night as you rest.
