sleep evades me
like the rain
evades the desert
silence creeps
through the night
wide open eyes
my breathing and
the voices in my head
is all i can hear
they are calling
gesticulating, cant help
but follow them where they lead
they scale up
into my neurons
squelch any sign of dissent
they knock knock
knock on the sentient
and question their volition
they ask not
of dreams, of triumphs,
ask not of love and resent
they think in vain
tell stories of bane
diabolic and uncompassionate
they elicit tears
inexcusably educe fears
make the night eternal
benighted, cannot battle
these thoughts that
seize my complete being
angry Morpheus
aren't you charmed with
my gentle smile and gracious eyes
all i do is
lie in wait for
the morning light to seep through
they deliver me
from the dark shadows
bringing with them sweet slumber
finally i sleep
with salty wet cheeks
when the dawn and moon speaks.
Two AM, the body is rested, the mind is clear and dreams seep out into the nether wolrd
hey.. great poem if u want read END OF ANOTHER DAY And PASSIVELY BEING they express the same thoughts
Here you are at two in the morning..and it is, what happens in the deepest scales within..The words, it struck me through. Undefinable yet, exact! ! To reread, a must. A 10! !
You are not alone, words are overcrowded and must slip out to give their two cents worth, regardless of the time.
I am definitely adding that to my favorites the one thing I noticed when I wrote Dark Shadows rising I honestly felt nothing 4 it it was a class assignment but when people read it they tend to fall in love and I never understood why but reading this and seeing the familiarity of it I understand. wow that was a great write and remember. Spread Yourself! ! ! !
