My nights are long and lonely.
So many thoughts invading.
Rendering nil and useless,
my feeble stabs at sleep.
Thoughts scuttling, to and fro,
of all the words we’ve spoken…
yet, many more left
dangling-unborn -
or buried deep.
Past phrases leap and frolic.
Unanswered questions linger.
Meanings lost in limbo,
the two of us have found.
Be still!
My weary heart is needing rest and solace.
Still, endlessly,
the memories continue swirling ‘round!
At last, sleep is descending,
so deep that dreams can‘t follow.…
And, for the moment,
resting…the puzzle - You and Me.
This welcomed sleep I covet,
embrace it, seek to hold it!
For these fleeting hours,
I know that I am free.
