I was sitting on a window one night and looking outside, listening to a streamer called Miunau I sometimes come to when looking for new music.
He was playing the track called "Rest" from Flink by Air Cushion Finish, and the words just came to me, so I grabbed my handy notebook and worked this little poem out.

Commentary
I'm a very nostalgic person, and some mornings I wake up thinking about how much time had passed, and where I was a few years back. So I wanted to play with this idea of sleep as a passage of time through the stages of one's life. And I love to end things in a cyclical manner. Also cat picture because I had no other fitting photograph at the moment. :)
