Subside
In a snap,
I’m awake
eyes dart on the ceiling
blinking, seeking
for wandering soul
who left as it sees
this being close for
healing
body remains still
seeking for strength to rose from
the warmth blanket brings
Guts finally sink in
i sat up sitting on the corner
fingers fidget, clasping sheets ,
soft cloth
thoughts seem to be on-leave
empty, a total blankness
there was in mind
Not thinking at all
…must’ve been the perks of bedridden
Throat dries
aching for something to sip in
…a cola, good-choice
i aim to be up but the stairs, the room
must’ve been its entirety calls me,
whispering my name
asking for little lone time
unsure if i would like to give in…
eyes on the window pane
staring blankly on swaying leaves and branches
i did not notice just few meters
must’ve trespass this lair
Aching to do something,
window… I want to shut close
yet couldn’t move an inch
my legs
as if paralyzed…
it won’t move
Conceded…
lay down,
shut my eyes close
ditch things again
…for another while.
