Drifting Through the Night
the wind whispers in the trees
an owl sings in the moonlight
the stars twinkle in the dark sky
moonlight streams down in streaks
of light
me drifting throught the night
catching all of this
thinking troubled thoughts about
this life
swearing at myself for every mistake
during my existing
trying hard not to beat myself down
only it is difficult not to
when you are me
that is why i drift throught the night
thoughts jumbled and tangled
around one another
me drifting aimlessly around
only to end up right
back where i started
troubled and drifting along
