Beautiful words
Embrace my mind
Yet life demands
My attention
haiku, design, photography
Beautiful words
Embrace my mind
Yet life demands
My attention
the sun rises
i resist waking
my warm bed
Awake
Not my desired state
Yet here I am
Fighting my own mind
What do I gain
When I win?
Another morning
A fresh start, awakening
Awake and alive
My relentless mind
In perpetual motion
Sleeping’s a challenge
Awake against my will
Dreaming of dreaming
Longing for slumber
The machinery of my mind
Psychological cogs churn and spin
Whirring hum of my soul
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.
Forcing wakefulness
I resist vigorously
Weariness grinds
I pull my dust together
And rise
