in the shadows

This big bright moon is nagging me;
I need sleep to free my soul,
I know I do not want to remember
whatever is slipping through the shadows
at the bleeding edge of my recall,
demanding I go wallow in
all the mess I have lived through;
I find my own past boring
and I need sleep now most of all,
but the cats are jumpy,
the wind howls freely,
threads of torn wind shredded clouds
go ripping through the indigo
surrounding this damned happy moon,
and my memories feel like a shoe
that used to fit before I grew.

Ditto. Right down to the restless cats, ditto.

"and my memories feel like a shoe

Great analogy!
