Untitled-I

Sitting alone
I'm finally at ease.
The chaos of the day
Has come and gone.

A warm breeze
Touching my exposed skin,
Tantalizes my senses
And steals me away

When did life become such a battle?
Constantly at war with what is and what should be.
Silence is my alliance
I believe it always will be.

Chasing dreams
That I never even see in my sleep
Make my mind weary
And my soul feel stale.

Staying wide-eyed and awake
I drink my wine at an unforgiving pace.
As my vision goes blurry,
I finally sleep.
