‘Sonnet V – Ripened Eyes’

Drapes of awareness ripen my dim eyes
Leaving me staring aimlessly ahead
What can I do? after numerous tries
Looking over to satin sheets from bed
Rescue my head, it fills with painful ache
Beating, pounding my ears abruptly so
When I slumbered before, must I awake?
One more attempt to sleep and to let go
An enduring wink of two weary eyes
Shuffling the visions in my mind so stable
Dreaming a figure so pure; two soft thighs
Assuring myself, knowing I am able
Lounge my head upon cotton clouds to dream
Now I’ve diminished night’s devilry scheme!

Jeremy D. Raulinaitis
