of Depression

The sizzle of the drizzle left my windows
Before the sun had begun to rescind the shadows
Sleepless the night with eyes full of sand
With rubber bone knees I’ll still stand
And walk the streets wet with the dawn
I keep a pace that moves me ever on
Till I find a bench to collapse onto
Flooded by droplets more than few
And look out with crusty red eyes
Watching as the seagull flies
Merely inches over the bay
And is quickly away.
The day’s begun
And insomnia won.

Gloom

Ah, you too?  I may need a nap
before noon...something must be
in the air...

Good tired morning, Professor...

I hope the insomnia leaves...soon...

merely inches over the bay"

Much enjoyed these random thoughts from a fellow insomniac!!  As a professional musician, I have spent many a morning watching the seagulls fly after a sleepless night!!  Great write!!

Accept these small gifts from my gypsy heart  ~~S~~

understood

some days I refuse
to give up the nights
to sleep
wanting more than
just a full day
