Twilight, on the lake
Nightfall sneaks in quietly
Nature falls asleep

I have never known
where to draw the line
my fantasies, bleed out
from the end of a pencil
onto blank pages
where thoughts spill
without ink, splotches
of words, erased, replaced
then smeared again
by the brush of my hand
or is it my vision, blurring
the existing lines, a verse
left unattended because
I have fallen asleep
into yet another dream

Peaceful daydreaming
Is a magpie finding sleep
Upon the branches

Even with my eyes closed
The room begins to spin
In no particular direction
Yes, a silent sort of din
Kaleidoscopic swirls
Make waves across the walls
Home alone, in this nightmare
Where no one hears my calls
I try my best to stand up
But fall back onto the bed
Concentric circles swirl about
I’ll just lie down here, instead
Make it stop, I hear me say
I can’t take this any longer
A sedative can help me sleep
Or something even stronger
To silence all these demons
Playing games inside my head
I just want to go to sleep
It’s these restless nights, I dread

Satin petals sleep
Cradled in soft greenery
Awaiting the dawn
