Weary bones, diminishing light
Sunset, gathering in the night
Tired limbs begin to drag
Aching bones begin to nag
Looking for a resting place
Serene, a quiet, secret space
To dream my dreary thoughts away
And sleep, until the light of day

He scattered my thoughts
Paled the vivid colors, blocked,
Then frightened away my dreams
He was darkness, the ebony night;
Chasing shadows round my head,
His visions, quite obscene
Like a nightmare, far too real;
My slumber, shackled,
Chained, within my silent scream
He held the key, I’m no longer free
From the darkness of my memory

Reflections are still
Yet, the midnight sun shimmers
Where the waters sleep

It’s 3AM and I’m still awake
I walk to the window and pull back the drape
And stare at a moonless starlit sky
And wonder aloud, why is it I
Cannot find the sleep I so desperately crave
These thoughts overtake me, to a point where I cave
And slink back to my desk like a cat on the prowl
After all, it is why I am called the Night Owl

Old Man Moon who Shines so Bright
Sleep under thine own very Light
Gentle Waters still in Slumber
Forest beauty Unencumbered
Cast your Glow, Subdued, Agleam
Let the Night Vanish into a Dream
