The Mind Is Trying

The mind is trying
On different disguises
Hoping for relief

I am going back to bed
To force myself into 
Some healthier sleep

I'm glad you're trying to rest... most of the time that's the best thing to help us heal (if & when we can stand it!).

There's nothing like going back to bed. Well said.

I am up and down, down and up wondering which one feels healthier at that second.

Sometimes sleep works sometimes it doesn’t. It’s good that you keep trying.

I am trying so hard to be well. A weird malady has visited me and caused me lots of grief this week.
