Someone said :
One if my favourites:
Prayer for the sleepless nights.
My heart has been turned from home, for i am wakeful.
As the desert hours stretch out to the stars,
As an exile banned from the native land of sleep,
I offer this prayer for all that are wakeful and alone,
In torment and danger, in fear and in despair,
In grief and watchfulness, in worry or in care,
May the thatcher of sleep make a roof for the wakeful soul,
May the weaver of dreams lend al garment to cover the wakeful,
May the womb of night become a cradle of rest for the restless.
May the exile be restored to the house of sleep.
