Counting Sheep

Sonam Kaloti
Arts Editor

you don't let me leave

so, I wait until you count your sheep
I want you to stay

awake but you are fast asleep

well I’m counting the days until you call back
youre waiting for me to cut you some slack
going skating on jet black tarmac

will you ride with me?

Oh, when I go outside

I know where I'll hide

So, find me in the trees
sippin’ on moonbeams

don‘ forget the keys

in case | miscount your sheep

going crazy with pockets empty but we'd rather be no where
