Dream of Dawn

Silence, an old friend

Come to play in the dark

Shadow puppets against the bed frame

Memories of years gone by

Like sands in an hour glass

Dancing with my inner thoughts

Like connecting the

Chaotic constellations

With each step

Losing my way back to reality

Where the minutes become liquid

Like melted wax on an alters candle

I should be used to this by now

These walls echoing Alexa with

Digitized thunderstorms to

Drown out the single heartbeat

Calling out to the void

With no answer in return

This soul sewn together

Loosely

With each shallow breath

Praying sleep calls soon as

To sleep the waking giant

Within

Caught between twilights I

Dream of the Dawn
