Unrested mornings Sometimes want to linger Maybe spend the day Under the covers To read a novel about another life

a shatter of silence

“A fight of voice exceeds one of fists.” Bludgeoned, broken, cast away, Time devours, your name decay, Ascend beyond the gilded throne, Unsung, unrested, still overthrown.
Happy Women's History Month!

Pursuance

I watch as the rain pours down incessantly
I listen as the west wind howls past so silently
Yet to my destination I must pursue
My fate be tested my truth be told
Yet alas my goal is not yet in view
Steadfastly onto my burden I hold
Bathed in this monsoon rain I stand weathered
Yet I know that without a doubt I shall reach unrested

Underloved

It's early morning,
And I'm in silence without noise;
Some thoughts wander, I can't reach them,
They were eager to see dawn.

My porch's sagging, rain is present,
You may be somewhere alone.
And raindrops are falling from my ceiling,
Like a hysterical rugged drum.

And here I am,
Unrested and watching;
This sunk heart,
Lonesome in love.

Behind My Eyes

Behind my eyes
There is a raging battle 
Constant conflict
Who'll win
My dreams or my nightmares
If you know tell me
Daylight, dreams rule
Sunny beaches
Grassy meadows
Hand in hand
By night
My horrors awake
So do I
Seen so much death
It rises like the moon
Shining fright
I shiver
O dawn
Come
Unrested 
Thankful
The daylight hits
Behind my eyes

Land ho!
If I can just make it to that post….
Bird was exhausted, but distant dot gave him hope

Now if you can make it to the next landing spot
You have it made, an inner voice said
Bird asked the voice to back off
Let me have ten minutes to enjoy this, okay?

Send him an owl, inner voice said, loud enough for him to hear.
Bird flew off, frightened and unrested.

Unrested Spirit Rest

A feeling of unsettled turmoil
The deeper I query the more uproar
I gather my thoughts of uneasiness
The further I probe the greater restlessness

Stillness is what is required now
Silence the mind against its own row
Composure of breath makes the heart Queen
My spirit lays at rest, it’s intuition serene
