Facing Forward, Pursuing Progress
My relentless mind
<
p style=”font-family:"”>In perpetual motion
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Sleeping’s a challenge
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Awake against my will
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Dreaming of dreaming
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Longing for slumber
<
p style=”font-family:"”>The machinery of my mind
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Psychological cogs churn and spin
<
p style=”font-family:"”>Whirring hum of my soul
The night moving now
It slides up, embracing me
A piano plays
I want to sleep
I want to write
I want these two
To align in
Daylight
Another day ends
Dark blue sky fading to black
Rest’s demands winning
It’s been a king, busy day. Sleep’s call is winning with me. Time to wrap up the day and go up sleep.
Such tranquil music
Carrying my soul skyward
Glorious nighttime
May you might be restful and you awake rejuvenated.
Dreaming I’m awake
My own mind is sadistic
Now dawn approaches
Not feeling too well rested today. Ugh!
Happy Friday, everyone.
Night fell long ago
Yet sleep is avoiding me
I hear the highway
Oh sleep, I’ve requested your presence some time ago. Sigh…
Oh well, at least I can sleep in tomorrow.
Tonight’s Good Night Haiku
As the night moves on
And my wakefulness ending
Slumber’s beauty calls
Good night, my internet friends
Eyelids drooping down
My weariness at day’s end
Preparing for bed
The hidden moonlight
Obscured from my view by clouds
Now to attain sleep
And now, and good night to you all.
