Sleep

On sleepless nights, I write;
Words keep me accompanied 
Like a night light,
Sky filled distant stars that spark,
Giving hope in dark;
As much it pleads peace,
Keeps me up filled with thoughts;
Ah!Silly that I need silence dark,
To finally close my eyes;
Turning every passing minute,
To an craving endless warm hug.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
