I’m so tired but cannot sleep,
motionless, thoughts float to the
surface
disturbing the mirrored
reflections
with ripples (of fear?)
I’m so tired, it’s time to sleep,
fall over the edge of silence,
into the absence of light to be
in a place my mind cannot rule.
Those moments when your mind won't rest and those where you are lost to the dream...

ReplyDeleteAin't sleeplessness a bitch Shadow? I rarely sleep more than 2-3 hours at a stretch but it's physical pain that wakes me and desire once it's abated that keeps me up.
ReplyDeleteI would hate to hate the night.
Love this....know the feeling well
