The Sleepless Heart

\nOne cannot sleep when sleep’s besieged by dreams
\nThat tear your heart and rob you of your mind,
\nSweet mists of love give way to sulph’rous steams
\nIn such a state true rest is hard to find.<\/p>\n
The silver Moon and rolling greens and greys
\nOnce filled my head before the sky turned gold;
\nNow chaos lurks throughout an endless maze
\nAnd demons dance through fields I once controlled.<\/p>\n
One day, I know, true beauty will return,
\nThat choirs of stars will sing again for me.
\nHowever hard the lessons are to learn
\nI must believe that life is poetry.<\/p>\n
There’ll come a time when I find nights are blessed
\nWith easy dreams and hours of blissful rest!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
