Night Nurse

The Night Nurse is on

Call tonight...

...Poised above the

Sleeping maze...

She wavers as 

Our chests

All rise...

...In her eyes

We lay

Unscathed...

The Night Nurse

Whispers down

To us,

Walking over 

Eggs

Of nod...

...When we rise, we

Won't remember that

We were so

Close to God.

Singing in the most

Angelic voice,

That only dreamers

Hear...

...The Night Nurse

Mines 

The great divide 

Of what's imagined,

And appears...

...On the surface

Of the glass,

Before it's washed out

With the rain...

...As the mirage is

Ever present, and

Reflects inside

Our brains...

The Night Nurse is on

Call tonight...

...Poised above the

Sleeping maze...

...I love her,

And I 

Need her close...

...Giving refuge

Through my

Days.
