No More Sleeps

No More Sleeps

A Poem by T.C. Banks

No more sleeps, Sweet Angel.
No more sleeps.
No more sleeps, Tiny Baby.
No more sleeps.

Until you start school, Precious.
No more sleeps.
Until it gets cool, Sweet One.
No more sleeps.

No more sleeps till treatment begins.
No more sleeps.
No more sleeps till you hair comes in.
No more sleeps.

No more sleeps till you’re not sick again.
No more sleeps.
No more till you see friends.
No more sleeps

No more till your funeral.
No more sleeps.
We have picked your casket.
No more sleeps.

No more sleeps until goodbye.
For every sleep, we will cry.
No more sleeps before you die.
One last sleep.
