Midnight Pillow-Talks
by Phronesus Disegno
Age Group: Adult
No inspiration to write
The words I cannot find
The day has left me tired
And rest is on my mind
To-do lists never ending
Set back just like before
Each item gets checked off
Creating several more
It's time to go to sleep now
But my mind won't let me rest
It all starts again tomorrow
For the world expects my best
The only thing that soothes me,
To help me sleep at night
Are those midnight pillow-talks
That set my dreams in flight
There's no one here right now
I'm sitting here alone
But it seems I found some words
In this poem of my own
I writing down my pillow-talk
Under midnight skies of blue
And although you didn't know it
I've just had this talk with you
So thanks a lot for reading
Now I think my mind will rest
And then when tomorrow comes
I am sure to give my best
The day has left me tired
And rest is on my mind
My dreams can now take flight,
Sleep's here for me to find.
Author's Notes: Who would have thought that writing poetry can help nights of insomnia? :-)
Like reading a book at bedtime, it helps me to shift my focus from the active daytime (that is, my job) to sleepy time. I do love my job, but as with all jobs, it can be quite taxing at times. I think that if something as writing poetry or reading a book is helpful to get me in the mood to just go ahead and fall asleep, instead of thinking about the day and reviewing my next course of action over and over again, that it is a good means to achieve it.
Rest assured (pun intended) , there is someone in my life with whom I have pillow-talks, but we do not live together and therefore do not spend each night together. This was one of those nights. But hey, life is good and if all else fails, I suppose I could always take a sleeping pill. ;-) (gulp!)
