Here I am once again unable to fall asleep at a decent hour… So I will make use of this situation to write a poem after long last. (I had actually written this around 3:15am, but there was a problem with my Internet connection and I was unable to correct before I ended up falling asleep.) It’s really time for me to dust the cobwebs off this blog and get back in the habit of writing regularly.
The lull of trickling water
Does not satisfy
Her thirst
For rest
Nor does the whisper of the wind
As she lies in her bed of cotton
Instead her mind wanders
Restlessly
Wading through the sea
Of thoughts
Her world is gray
But for sporadic bursts
Of colour
Brought about by
Fleeting moments
Where she can escape
Expectations
Obligations
Soon she must
Sleep
So that she might
Wake
And realize that this life
Needs direction
A spark
A dream
A goal
❤ Me

Hi Jenna! I just popped by here yesterday to see if maybe I was just missing your posts. I especially liked the picture of the wind on a bed of cotton. Great image.
