Midnight.
Sleep eludes.
It runs and hides from the Maelstrom of my Mind
Menacing.
Thoughts.
Images.
Emotions.
Rushing, Churning.
“When will it stop?!”
Awake and restless.
Like a Horizontal Square Dance,
“Toss to the left; Turn to the right.
Sit up straight; Awake all Night.”
“Please, Yahweh, Let Sleep, Blessed Sleep
fall upon me.”
Yet, here I am still.
Waiting.
Hoping.
Praying.
“Please, help.”
