time to

reach deeply inside the exhausted mind

 

time to

finally put the famished emotions to rest

 

time to

discard the ponderous thoughts of the day

 

time to

bottle up tears for another moment to weep

 

time to

let go of today’s agony and slip into numb sleep

 

time perhaps

to dream of a new tomorrow of

peace and of light

time perhaps

to dream of hope with wings aflutter

soaring into flight
