Sleeplessness

This of pang of heavy drowsiness never seems to hit me in the chest anymore. Before it was like a small, dull weight bearing down on the core of my very being. Now, all that I run to is a heaviness of the eyes and a longing to just shut them for a while. It’s [...]

Thick of Night

The moon still hangs low in the darkened sky. Stars are poking around giving the moon some company and while they are silently at work, I still stand tired. No solace for the weary, but rest for the humble. And so, as we make our way through the thickest part of this sunken night, it [...]

Night

Cold, windy. Up above, gleams of golden specks pierce through the blanketed sky. The moon is gone, as are the clouds, and all that remain are hoards of stars shimmering down through the heavens. An ethereal light as it will only last a short time. The light remains, but only hidden beneath the Sun’s sheer [...]

Sweetly, softly, the Sun fades through the sky riding along the glistening shades of the clouds. Drift back and notice the stars’ failure to poke their far-traveled light through the gleam of the Sun’s dying rays. Even still, as the sky fades dark, a small breath comes alive and fades into the chilling air. Glistening, [...]

First Impression

As I’ve always thought, my thoughts were simply mine. I still feel that to be somewhat true, but I come to a place where I believe that my thoughts become too complicated for anyone but myself. That is quite true on some levels, but then this idea captivates my whole system of beliefs and I [...]

For Just a Moment

Give me just the faintest idea, the slightest notion. Because I’m falling apart over here, loosely held together by a weak glue. The ground shakes beneath my feet and these seemingly small vibrations are shifting the parts of the whole. Maybe it’s a good thing, maybe it’s a sign of what is to come. This [...]
