It can take but the creak of a stair; The light pad of a footstep; The clearing of a throat; The opening of a draw. It can take but the mumble in your sleep; An outsider's soft voice; Static of my phone; A train's distant roar. It can take but one silly little thing; The sound of someone sighing; A breathing pattern changing; The rustle of a page.
To wake me up. And once I am awake, awakeness traps me like a merciless cage.
What can I say? I'm a light sleeper!
