Racing into the night
Running away from the light
Hiding from the loud daylight
As I wait for the approaching twilight
I look for the silver moon
As I listen for the tune
Of the ending afternoon
Racing into the night
The stars begin to ignite
As the silver moon reaches its height
I stretch my wings to finally take flight
I’ll trace all the constellations as I fly
Until I hear the morning sigh
Of the sun about to approach the sky
Anyone wanna read this poem i just wrote working on my poetry annalysis sleep deprived? No? Imma just gonna put it here then.
I heard you wake
When eve barely broke
And yet I ignored the call
The birds and bustle
For the temporary comfort I had
I ignored my duties
What I don’t want to face
To what I had
I pulled myself closer
The covers over my head
I woke when the sun was high
When noon had struck and I could lie no more
Light glaring through the curtains, the bustling outside
Sitting up like being wound
A turner in my head, the gears now turning
I stood from my bed
I walked out of my room
The hall brightly lit
By the sunlight at the end of the corridor
Blinding I avert my gaze
I wanted to retreat
Back where I came
Not wanting to face
And yet I must
My comfort now gone, where I left it just then
Feeling regret with every step
The cursing loudly echoing
My day had just begun
And yet it was already half gone
I could only watch, as I waste what little I had away
Cursing even louder, though I made no point to change
There always seems to be something better, more alive
Than what I have to do
I buried my thoughts in laughter, I myself laughed too
Facing the bleary screen
My mind is blank though moments ago it was full to bursting
I could only watch as the numbers change
5, 6, 7, 8,
Slowly but surely
Now I feel stress
It all seems to be crashing down
Like that of the titanic
Engine and goose up north
Can I land
Is there time
Regret and remorse fill my mind
I now sit by myself at the dead of the night
My words not none but not nearly full
If only I didn’t crowd my mind
As I take a pen to write
Tapping of the keys, bright light above
No more could I take
I bury myself, in what comfort I have
Lulling my mind with a fake promise
Closing my eyes to all I fear and despise
Hoping to never wake again
