Early morning hours

Linger for an eternity

In ebony light

Dried up, depleted

I, like a wilted rose

On the yellowed page

Fell crumbled, defeated

And you left me that way

Awaken Me – #NaPoWriMo #poetry

I am weary

Growing tired of the day

Awaiting, the night

Longing

For darkness, the Milky Way

My mind, emptying

Of daily matters

Weighing on my heart

My thoughts, scatter

And yet, I am alive

Wishing on the stars

Gathering the light

It awakens me

Ebony splendor

Surrounding my soul

Taking me places

Tis where I am whole
