I have been *attempting* to focus my precious time on writing poetry and researching the art of books and the amount of strength words carry. I have been taking a step back to really dig as deep as I can and take a look into my emotions as I am finding a way to escape the stress and exhaustion of the human life. Please enjoy this poem I wrote regarding life and earth.
Do not disturb my waking dream
as the sky cried all night
I take a seat
wet soil spreads across
A layer of forest green
the tears of mother earth
brings more life
for another day.
Do not disturb my waking dream
I spy butterflies
kissing the pedals
taking a breather
enjoying the silence.
Do not disturb my waking dream
my back against
your beating heart
I feel the warmth —
you shine brighter
then what’s above.
Do not disturb my waking dream
I embrace the loneliness
the moon
my only friend.
it’s quiet here
it’s better here.
