Jeff Smith Poet I do not know?

Restless

My mind wonders the endless void of dark decrypted shadow pits of my life
and echo back a sound like nails on a chalkboard. 
This will be another restless night.

I look out my window to see a shadow move in the moon light
My mind wonders still, Sleep is now but a hollow memory.

Restless emotionless husk from my sleep deprived state if only the Reapers hand would
sooth my mind and wisk me away.

Gert W. Knop August 9, 2009 at 5:11 AM I can feel with you, Jeff, nights without sleep, when thoughts have their own life and dreams won't come. Good write. I really like it very much. Thank you for your comment on Lonesome at the Sea. Your friend Gert
