Whispers, silence in the night

Shadows, figures in the light

Footsteps, echo off the ground

Bodies, scattering around

Screaming, nothing can be heard

Blindness, filters the absurd

Evil, gathering its flock

Spirits, race against the clock

Sunlight, rising in the east

Demons end their deadly feast

Carry me away on the wings of a cloud

The silence surrounding, ever so loud

Speaking in colors of pastel unknowns

Pinks and blues, in harmonious tones

Bathing in luminous, scattered beams

Drowning me in my forever dreams

That breathe the colors to make me whole

As I float along with Heaven’s soul

Calming repose, inhaling tranquility

On the wings of a cloud, whispered serenity

You have to wait to enter the world

For fingers, toes to become unfurled

You have to wait to come of age

Teenage hormones, filled with rage

Then, you have to wait to graduate

Take the time, to find your mate

You have to wait for health results

While all the doctors, do consult

You have to wait, to know what’s true

You have to know, what’s right for you

You haven’t got time, to sit around

This waiting game, is so profound

You have to wait, it’s so absurd

Wait really is, a four letter word

Cosmic moods of fiery night
Swirl in whispered breaths
Envelop me in sweet caress
In your ever infinite depths

Rest upon my shoulders
Let the magic take control
Fly about in vibrant splendor
Guide me to the celestial pole

Taunt me with your voices
Low in a breathless sigh
Send me through this odyssey
With the clouds upon the sky

Take me far into the wonders
Exquisite with everlasting love
Ethereal beings traveling down
From the heavens high above

I really should be fast asleep

It’s funny, I’m not tired

The night has taken over me

The light of day, expired

 

There’s a spider crawling up my wall
He doesn’t notice me at all

Perhaps he’s uninspired
By the fact that I’m not tired

 

My brain is running on caffeine
It really should be in a dream

Is that truly what I desire?
Cause I’m really not that tired

 

I close my eyes and try to rest

Still, visions dance before me

Why do I even bother?

Now where’s that cup of coffee?

 

Sweet liquid gold is most required
Oh, did I mention I’m not tired?
