Drifting

No shivers, drifting along with salty sea so calm and quiet, splashing in the small crevices of my ears. I am not cold as I lay looking up at the cloudy blue sky looking back at me. It is so bright, but not enough to have my eyes squint to see light.

My eyes grow heavy, my body ready to fall into a deep, silent, slumber.
I feel so numb. Silent worries whisper words I've heard before.
" Do I know the difference between right and wrong to be able to teach my future children?"
" Will I grow more weary than I do now?"

I am so tired.
I want a warm, light, sweet drink.
I want to put on some warm, comfortable, just out of the dryer pajamas.
I want to curl up in a cozy bed with big blankets and a comfy pillow.

Why is there so much fear and hatred in the world?
Where is my cozy cave where I can be safe without worries and doubts?
Where is my place of solace where my tears can run and I can be free?

Oh dark sweet night so far away
Come to me so I can sleep until another day.
