Dawn’s not yet here
Yet i need to be awake
Weariness slows me
More than i care to admit
Tag: weariness
A long day done
Though not inspired
Only feeling weariness
Force myself to write
Another Day Ends
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.
A Day Of Distractions
This day’s distractions
So now I seek clarity;
Facets of my life
Days like this make me weary. Most of my plans failed to launch. Yet I got stuff done. So, there’s that.
A Goodnight Haiku
Eyelids drooping down
My weariness at day’s end
Preparing for bed
West of invective
At times I weary
All this invective burning
I’m charred and hollow
A Morning Meditation
Forcing wakefulness
I resist vigorously
Weariness grinds
I pull my dust together
And rise
Numb
Facing life’s cruelty
Weary of watching them crushed
Energy vanished
Insomnia Sucks
Frustrations flowing
Exhausted, yet cannot sleep
Insomnia sucks
Slumber’s Unanswered Call
A strange night,
Again awake when I wish to be asleep.
Slumber ignores my humble call
Blindly ignoring both my needs and concerns.
This lack of weariness annoys.
This rationale mind knows,
Knows the exhaustion coming.
Tomorrow’s sunrise.
Dread stares into my eyes,
Unblinking.
