There I lay…
Sleepless night…
Lost in my distracted thoughts…
Unable to rest…to be still…
The mind rushes…
~*~
Sleep comes…softly…
Fleeting…threatening to vanish…
Toss and Turn….
Twisted sheets match my thoughts…
My dreams….don’t dream…
~*~
Please…sleep come…
Take me where I can dream…
Where I want to dream…
Don’t disappear…
~*~
Dreams come hard and fast….
Too fast…too elusive…
The mind rushes…
~*~
Please slow down…
I want to know you…savor your lucid images…
Revel in the falling…
Dreams sweet embrace…
~*~
I cannot dream…
Will not dream…
For fear of awakening…yet again…
Dreaded disappearance…
The mind rushes…
~*~
Sleepless night…
