I can't go to sleep
with good thoughts
still lingering in mind.

I must ride the wave
until it's Crest
breaks under
the passing of time.

Till my self and whole
are torn asunder
I plunge into the depths.

Passing now,
the shallow veil.

I have grown quite adept,
in this game I call "my life"
and godly humored quest.

The easiest move is riding it out
it's acceptance which is hard.

Now the wave is gone, but I sink on
into deeper, and deeper depths
till dawn.
Speculations on why I usually can't sleep
Brandon Oct 2018
I must admit.
I delete.
Almost everything. I wirte.
I punctuate. And separate.
As a certain way. Of skirting trust.

I let it be. And let it live. By killing off. What it once was.

But might this oft'. Be better than.

Deleting.
Every. Thing at. Once.

?

I'm sure I know my answer
when I run my mouth for days
and spin so many words around
in quite a stunning haze
of blurry and tremendous racquet-thunder
bolt of gazes
through the open doors of heaven
and my feet can't find
my way out tangled
forest anchors
of my mind
when
I
can't
punctuate
the finer thoughts so well
or half the times
I can't recall
in my own life
though out of stride
maybe blessings unrevealed

I still need a signal of the ending
of the odder grandeur times
just as a message in need of a dot
to keep.
Things. In. Line.

It seems. There is. Not a difference. And. I still. Must stab. My sentence.s. with oh. So many. Dots. But I. can't let. My self. Go. Enough. To say. This right. So I'll. Just say.

It seems I can only keep my balance, when I "don't know" what to say.
This is a true account. A while back I deleted all of my old writing and since it seems I can't let my words breathe.
I suppose the reading of this is to simulate how closterphobic yet wild my creative energy felt for the time coming back to this.

Definitely glad to be writing something I can let be it's own thing again.
