Unsure

Unsure weather to broach the river that could swallow you up whole, Leave you gasping for breath under the current as you are swept away, but needing to know what’s on the other side. You face the choice of venturing forward or forever wondering. Even if you manage to put your mind on something else, a new adventure, the question will always be lurking in the back of your mind, and will come out every time you have to pass by the swift water’s edge. Unsure how to proceed, you hesitate. Look for guidance from somewhere, but no one is around. You are alone with your thoughts, questions……putting a toe in, you’re sure that you have made the right choice, and then a sudden splash distracts your determination….and makes you step back and think again. What if this is the end? What if there isn’t another chance to know, but what if by moving forward you remove all hope of anything else. Either way you’d never know, and would be left….alone with the wondering or alone under the current. Unsure of which is worse, the ending of time or the never ending wonder, you step forward again…..

The Unavoidable Option

Sleepiness washing over you like a tidal wave of hopes and dreams
A crashing blow that brings you down
Or a gentle rocking that can put you out
Weariness that is inside your soul as you move forward
Avoiding sleep, without a choice
Pressing on you hear the voice
Calling to you with a sweet lullaby
Nodding your head you stand up to make the effort
Making a move so you don’t stop in your tracks
Your head steadily falls
Eyelids closing gently but forcefully
You can’t go on and fight the dream
You can only submit to the power of nature
The human body and its design
Come crashing down into your reality
Knowing you need to move and can’t
Knowing something must be done
Sleep is the only option now
