I find it hard to stop a ponder-
even when I welcome dream,
ensembles of poetic thought-
trickle through the scene…

Chaos reigns inside my head-
~a battle to be won~
Hard at work, my disconcert,
manages victory by sun…

Infantile, in necessity-
I cannot find the time,
To relish in my forte-
of slumber spell design…

Candles lit around the room-
Accordance to my feat,
Sandalwood, so soothing-
Yet still I stroke defeat…

Harmonious, oh blessed be!
I lull into a trance-
To cradle drowsy obsession-
~Another wasted chance~

Open arms can be the most fragile in the world...

Hey, Nice work T. You can just skip the "editor" part and publish.

This makes me think of my lack of motivation to write down a lot of the good stuff in my head lately. Enjoyed your writing.

Distance is the prison for our bodies, but no prison could weaken our passion.
