Out of control,
I cling on to my empty bed
and dread dawn
as another day is on its way —
I know it's over - still I grip

Author Notes
GOGYOHKA is a five line free-style Japanese poetic form with no strict rules on syllables count but as brief as possible. Any theme. Lines are grammatically connected. Alliteration, personification, and metaphor are okay but never rhyme. Japanese poets have written gogyohka since the 1910s. However, they did not name the form until 1983 by poet Enta Kusakabe. wikipedia
