A Little Poem.

January 30, 2008

The Night is dark and calm

As I lay in bed staring up at the dotted, white, bland ceiling above me

My eyes chase the ceiling fan in that same circular motionOver, and over, and over

Until, ever so slowly, that familiar feeling begins to sink its claws into my tender flesh

I can feel my eyes become heavy, like the weight on my heart

My mind stills and suddenly I am at peace as I drift

Drift silently onto the night

Silently into a deep sleep

And leave my pain for another day
