Broken souls
Both need love
Just to heal

To love you without no rest.

Sleep now, precious mind,
We will keep wake,
Lest the nightmen come
Stealthily, to take what
Remains of your earth glory.

with a friends
as the days end
its sore underneat
after the  dailey beat
I CONFESS

My cat is sleeping in my lawn 
Her head,tail and between thrown 
More than me something I own 
The day I slept last not known

As a crimson sun undresses a dawning dusk sky, A tree shades her orange children while they lie. 2020 January 10

Premium Member What you do in the next minute could impact the rest of your life

Stop laughing and help me.
You just wait till I get you.
It's not at all funny.

go back to 
sleep. 

The World 
is 
worse for 
wear,

without 
us 

worrying 
about it.

Crisp apple, 

ripen 
later.

I played and clowned around.
Now I don't dare make a sound.
Love this bed I found.

Put the World To Rest Or You Are a Pest

On our actions should the only curb
Be aiming at not to others disturb 
We may merit the name of man
If not, we stink like the garbage can

Through an open door
My soul shall come to rest
Nothing more or
Nothing less
I stumble and I fall
Take me to my nest
Now, I come to rest

Sunset through the glass

One window shade left open

Letting me look out

To watch the darkness coming

And the fall of one more night

It has been one year.
My dad died from lung cancer.
He's resting in peace.

Rest

a quiet prayer
for you
sleeping
I see the baby kicking
your pale face exhausted
yet resting
your arm on your belly
not ready yet
