Sleepless

rebmasters

I’m constantly turning,
head in a whirl,
trying to catch thoughts dashing by
like coloured lights
in the corner of a closed eye.
The more I spin,
the less able I am to capture them.
Memories slip 
forever out of reach,
I can’t maintain a grip
& then there’s you;
intoxicating my soul too,
pulling me into your orbit.
Your force
is magnetic
& electric,
your thoughts
race mine;
a magnificent game
but how can I ever keep up?

    by surrendering, willingly
    by choosing to believe, defiantly
    by readying: your calloused heart
    for one more, battle cry
    one more, bold leap - knowing, you deserve, nothing less
    than the very Best!
    life has to offer...
    (some astute relationship app, marketer
    should pay you for these words, dear poet) lol
    another wonderful read, thanks for sharing
