The room so still
With the sound of the outdoors and the ticking of clocks filling my ears
Iā€™m in bed
Unable to move
My heart so heavy it pins me where I lay
The glass ornament on my bedside table glints next to the picture of me as a child
An amethyst full of worries and dreams
Longing to be emptied by the moon
My heavy but awake eyelids keep glancing around for inspiration to be.
