Another silent night,
Listening to the wind and rain
Struggling to focus,
My mind at odds
Simultaneously racing
And befuddled
All at once
A frustrating predicament
The tea is gone
But caffeine does nothing
Too many years of dependency
Too little care to reduce
Dreaming of other worlds
Cut from whole cloth
My fingers dance
The keyboard clicking
Until the silence returns
And thoughts stop
The wind has settled for now
Only intermittent clicks of the keyboard
Stabbing at each space
Each jump
Desperate to regain control
