Sometimes
Try as I might
Words
Do not come
In searching to find
A different story
My sore heart
Wants to hear

Sometimes
Try as I might
No new images
Shimmer on the horizon
To end a rough
Unexpected
Wild water ride

Tugging at me
Maybe
The only way through
Is to surrender –
While under my breath,
Very quietly,
Still inviting support from
Another, any, realm

Sometimes
Relaxing
Resting
Giving into a nap
At the bach
At the beach
Drifting into a slumber..
A dream
Bursts onto the scene
Seemingly about another
But the message is clear

Sometimes a dream
Is what it takes
To set me free
