Silvered Seam

Fallow my space Along shores of sand Emptied lines trace The waiting edge Of those who fly Hidden the silence That holds my blind space Knowledge leaves holes In the better part Of those who wait Silvered the seam That binds the sharp sea Fallen wings deem folly The broken parts Of those who know Rolling of waves The flood tide enters Who could ever tell The fullness it fills For those who have waited

Thank you for your lovely comment! But I hope my poem didn't keep you awake!! ( I have suffered greatly with insomnia, too, and have had several breakdowns in my life. But I am grateful for them all, for they enriched my life, and were blessings in disguise! )
