Spinning while sleeping... by Jiblits

Spinning while sleeping...

Night thoughts - 36. - y knot

(Spinning while sleeping)

Before I begin, let me share a single sin...

As I lay woken by thoughts not my own

I see clarity at the questionable things I'm shown

Among a stance uneven, I find balance

Giving into motions wanted from others, I take that welcoming chance

Belittle the fool who whispers among the unclear

I find strength in knowing I think, always aware of many-a-fear

Slowly it builds walls, untouchable by those who can no longer admit to what they see

A mirror in mayhem, being broken before one can try, it shows why it can be free

Strings walk the puppets around, mimicking melodies spoken by memories of before...

Monotony heavy to follow, to do so would leave me hollow, I crave what's no longer shown, I crave more...

New steps taken, the world begins to crumble around

Uncertain what could be mistaken, "it" breaks free uneasily, now showing new ground

Echoes too late to comprehend...

Shadows run at the chance, to find each other, to make a friend...

All fractured, all fallen apart...

Many hold unsteady at a shaken heart..

Some...the lucky...prepare to once again...start...

Chaos a second of thought

I wake again, in shivers, on a cold bed, trying to remember what I just forgot...

Rest a must, a need, a want, necessity for a new day to quietly begin...

I hold loosely, a part of my simple, singular, sin...
