As Sleep Enters

As Sleep Enters

by CL

Wind out

Air slows

No one shouts

No need to forget

As many anew pour in

His blue eyes

The way he touches my chin

The ocean rolls

The grass whistles

Only remembering now

Shaded from the bristles

For now is good

And breath is clean

Eyes flicker

More thoughts flow

My eyes shut oh so slow

Typing blindly yet again

Raw thoughts sent through pen

I think of Fin

In heaven with Him

In fields with no distress

Without bosses and lives a mess

No requirements for stress is wrong

No negativity

He who has the nativity 

Why when I shut my eyes

Does Jesus always arise

In my words and my mind

His way he always finds

I'm not a religious person

For I believe in faith over conversion

But He must always appear

Whispering wisdom through my ear

Darkness may be all I see

But my fingers type so freely

These thoughts so natural

Unedited and healing

Rhyming often forgotten

In the world spoken without pen

Confused by my own thoughts

Drowsy minds a loose bulb

Trying to forget tomorrow

Or recollect today

Tenseness starting to rise

Start to forget

Let it fade away

As I fall asleep

Remember my love

Thinking of cookies up above

Hold onto me tight 

Its okay we'll make it through the night

Don't open your eyes

I promise I will guide

Tonight is one

One of many more to come

One day I will see you face to face

Promise me no one can take my place

For we are the lucky ones

Our hearts irreplaceable to everyone's

Snuggle close

Ignore the thunder

Lightening rises

As the sun subsides

Remember to smile

And always go the extra mile

Life is oh so short

For I know too well

It's precious in itself

I love you as I do

Unable to speak for my own

Your love has given me a home

He with me is love to all of us

I see you now

Your eyes like snow

Watch it fall from the sky

Know I went in

My soul turns words you knew into
Waves crashing

Wind in
