New Light/Insomnia

 


Can't sleep tonight..

Its the sun I now await,
I've decided it's insomnia;
The fiery dis-ease..
Seizing my comfort
And trapping my sleep..

So I step outside
With a small carpet in hand
To lay and look up to the stars above
(My companions for tonight)
Shining million miles away
Their twinkling light piercing through the darkness..

Till morning comes
And they too(like all else) fade away..
Giving way to a new and brighter wave of light..
The undeniably beautiful light
Of the morning sun
As it rises at dawn
To break the night..
Bringing a new kind of light altogether..

I shall persist, I shall hang on
At least to last long enough
To witness all 'this'..
To see where 'this' is headed to..

(Thank God for insomnia)
