a long nights sleep
can also be an invitation
for the phantoms of the mind
to celebrate
they are there
invisible and omnipresent
with no possibility to be silenced
before they have delivered their message
rarely in a lenient manner
mostly pushing up old wounds
as to remind us
that they never healed
once the party is over
and morning dawns
there Is no other choice
than beginning to complete
the work that was left undone
no matter how long time
ago
