Restless

Restless

In the depths of the night, why am I still awake?
Thoughts buzzing in my mind; white noise I cannot shake.
In an effort to enter a state of peace deep within my mind,
Harmony and calmness – a challenge for me to find.

The night falls black, yet thoughts remain bright
Images race through my mind at the speed of light.
Mixed up and confused and endless restless motion
Flowing back and forth like the rhythm of the ocean
