Peace of Sleep

Sitting on my bed;

Fingers tapping,

In time to music in the background.

I snap back to write;

but moments earlier,

My mind was floating a thousand miles away.

Its taking too long;

Trying to sort everything out,

Head is far too cluttered with things I cant remember.

It’ll be hours yet;

Before I close my eyes to rest,

And even then I’m not quite sure I’ll find the peace of sleep.
