Awoken
Light gives way to dark and I rest
but only for mere minutes
as my mind has just awoken
it rolls thru sunsets and still waters
fresh scents of spring beginnings
and the dawning of nights end
it breathes with sounds of nature
and it stops to inspect the view
there's no rain tonight
eventho I hear thunder in the sky
comfort caresses my carelessness
and feel releases from the locket
upon my chest
I rub it gently and give it a tiny kiss
can't remember who the lady is standing there
but the memory of this gift
and your smiles are all I got left
sleep will come in awhile
before dawn dispells the peace
moments right here remain ingrained
reminding me to just only be me
but only for mere minutes
as my mind has just awoken
it rolls thru sunsets and still waters
fresh scents of spring beginnings
and the dawning of nights end
it breathes with sounds of nature
and it stops to inspect the view
there's no rain tonight
eventho I hear thunder in the sky
comfort caresses my carelessness
and feel releases from the locket
upon my chest
I rub it gently and give it a tiny kiss
can't remember who the lady is standing there
but the memory of this gift
and your smiles are all I got left
sleep will come in awhile
before dawn dispells the peace
moments right here remain ingrained
reminding me to just only be me

"reminding me to just only be me"
The most complicated simple thing we can do in life. And nobody else can do it like we can. I love that it's the final line wrapping this whole poem up. I'm constantly telling Taryn "Breathe"...this feels the same to me.

Thanks dear. It seems so simple but we tend to make it complicated. Life's challenges can awaken us

such an ode of imagery,
particularly for the morning ...
I envied that as I am not
a morning person ...

Being one's self is not as easy as it may sound. You show much wisdom here, JusTim. Also a skill with words. Well done!
