Sleep

On By Veera

I’m back. After a month’s worth of boards, I have finally come back to writing… its been so long!!

Anyways, here’s ma next quadrille..enjoy!


I once feared
The night’s silence,
That echoed dreadfully loud,
Amidst darkness dense.

When body craved rest,
Tired from toil,
Mind opposed, afraid
Of stillness that uncoiled.

I told myself then,
If within, you believe
That every dusk precedes dawn,
Thy fears shall sleep.

Well, its been a while since I wrote anything, and I hope y’all like this… anyways, see ya!
