Sleep…I Left It Somewhere

Turbulent, Incessant Insomnia

A mind trapped in a maelstrom

Of stormy half considered thoughts.

Searching, never reaching

For an answer.

 

The beside light

Fires the starters gun

And the meaning of existence,

From amino acid beginnings

A daisy chain to me.

My mind is on the run.

 

An arid loneliness

Parches my hope of sleeping.

That oasis dream of peace

Rainbow led, never reaching

Treasured rest.

 

The darkness deepens

Dawn is on the run.

With lengthening strides of

Blackness,

An endless night drags on.

Is the problem insomnia, or philosophical worries, Forest?

'Amino acid beginnings' sounds like worries over chance roots to our existence, which doesn't agree with real science, or scripture. A Creator with purpose surely has personal peace for us, and knows the turmoils of the night watches too! Rhiannon

Not a personal worry.  I know and love my creator God.  I do write 'outside the box' sometime.  It helps me try and understand better others and how they may think and feel. 

What I do know is that all I discover about science and astro-physics in general only confirm the magnificance of his creation.  What jumps out at me when I think like this is how little I really know of his power and might.

I look on reassured.
