Broken Sleep Poem by Tia Maria

Broken Sleep

Rating: 5.0


Should turn off the light
but rather than
toss and turn all night
reach for the pen

Cannot find the words
to express
Don't want to write
lonely or unhappiness

Perhaps what I
am trying to say
Is I am grateful
I am doing okay

For the ones I love
I trust
in your care
to protect

I will continue
in this calm
Keep them safe
from every harm

Pillow so soft
bed so warm
shut down for now
till dusk is dawn

You can read this poem once, and like it and the second time around you find it has a strangely hypnotic cadence. Thanks!
