As I lay down on my bed
The sun shining through the window
Waiting for a peaceful afternoon sleep
My mind couldn't help but wander
How sating it is to be without worry
Peace and tranquility all around
Needs and wants satisfied
Pains and anguish forgotten
What it would take
To be this peaceful
All day long
But life has its gallops
Only contentment makes it worthwhile
A air plane hovers
Leaving behind its trailing noise
Cars horn far far ahead
The wailing siren,
Signaling the passage of a royalty
Tick-tock,
The clock ticks
All is naught
But a sweet distraction
All I did was lay on the bed
Waiting endlessly
For a sleep that never came.

PoetrySometimes, the only way we can truly express ourselves is by penning our emotions. When we need to be heard, but no one seems to listen. The only option is to write in hope that someday, someone truly worthy will listen and understand.
