insomnia
I don't know who I am anymore
its exhausting
I keep finding pieces of myself
and I try to get them to fit
circular puzzle
matte finish
and I can't make out the design
bitterness and frustration
swirling in a my spinning mind
rising to the top
and I am afraid
of what the picture might be
when my eyes clear
wrecked on the shore
of sleeplessness
the tide creeps up
and slides down
and I want it to carry me away
to rock me and lull me
drifting on the waves
further out to sea
could I find rest?
-----------------
sparkling in the light
your gift a jewel
and my first reaction
is to search for flaws
I'm on a teeter-totter
up when you are down
down while you soar
my trust waxes and wanes
with that hunk of rock out there
I trust you
I trust me
its the damn future I don't trust
everytime I see clear water
there's an invisible tempest lurking
wait it out with me?
