395 - It's funny, I'm kind of scared to tempt fate

It’s funny, I’m kind of scared to tempt fate,
By saying lately it’s been quieter
At night. Last night I slept through until eight,
And so today everything felt righter.
That sinking feeling as it gets lighter
Outside, and eyes are burning, brain turning,
Replaying some tune, melodic fighter
That won’t leave me alone, now I’m spurning.
No more nocturnal clock watching. Learning
To relax. I’ve made no more notes of late
About the noisy neighbours. They might have
Moved on, rented their flats to discerning,
Considerate people who don’t deviate
From the rules. Ahh, my nights have got brighter!
