Countless stars twinkled in the Heavens, lighting up the dark of night. The rhythmic breath of one in deep repose resounded in the stillness. Yieldingly I lost my fight- with sweet oblivion, as I feel within the clutches of my woes. The shambles of the past must be erased before the tomorrows, A fresh start with each dawn of a new day, eradicating yesterday's hurts and deep sorrows, that have fallen ruthlessly in life's turbulent fray. Sleep, God's merciful gift is a blessing and a healer in despair, There can no joy begot n wakefulness, only, in restful peace, devoid of care, Can one re-weave the threads of worldly stress. |
