I try to write,
when still awake,
but words won't flow,
until I sleep.

Why must life be,
this unstructured?
I need sleep,
but I am here.

Now 3 AM.
sleep no more.
Write the words
on paper, clean.

Back to sleep,
hard to do,
you're not here,
what happens now?

Lay awake,
for more time,
finally, it comes,
a new word rhyme.

Along Side

Alongside the river,
with its water flowing free,
find me a sunny spot,
it's where I want to be.

Alone, with my thoughts,
which matter to me.
To relax and nap,
setting my mind free.

Why does it matter,
what reason there be?
A secluded spot,
allows me to think of she.

As I write these words,
thinking of days gone by,
my emotional response,
to breakdown and cry.
