my mind
racing
not wanting to sleep

my eyes
stay

i buckle up tight
as
each lap picks up speed

for
the race of the night

to revisit
…
…
memories i need buried
places i cannot visit
one moment in time
tears trigger a mudslide

stormy weather

storms
are here
brewing deep
inside my soul
wishing for some peace
—
peace will never come
until the day
arrives when
i find
you
∞

go all out
‡

my thoughts scream out
my darkness seeps out
my fears shout out
my sadness falls out
my loneliness cries out
I want out
‡

the inner voice
” ” “
” “
only i can hear
the badgering and disdain
from past and present
i long for silence

my psyche
∞

alone in thought, always
ravenous feelings gnaw, always
begging for leniency, always
dreaming of peace, always

in the dark
…..
alone in the dark
my mind runs circles
plagued by many thoughts
another night – no sleep

droplets of quiet tears
cascading from clouds above
patters echo her cries
sadness befalls blue eyes

perpetual nights

staring out my window
listening to nature’s lullabies
watching gray become indigo
lying alone as always
