What Are You Thinking? Continued 14

Bone-Tired Benediction

There comes a point in the day when even coffee surrenders,
its strength no match for the weight of weary bones and the chorus of to-dos crowding my mind.

My body aches, shoulders carrying tasks not yet done, my thoughts spill over like water from a brimming cup -
too much, too fast, too heavy.

And yet - when night softens the edges of the world and I finally lie down,
the quiet wraps itself around me.

I am bone-tired, yes. But in that stillness,
a smile finds me anyway.

Because I showed up.
Because I gave what I could.
Because the day, however relentless,
was not wasted.

And if this is the last thought I hold
before slumber takes me -
let it be enough.
Let my weariness be offering,
my labor be litany,
my work itself the prayer.

You’re poetry is amazing.

How much can I drink tonight and not be hungover tomorrow

 

[Sexy_Singer]

I don't drink but there are times I want to. Tonight is one of those nights.

Where on earth did my holiday time go?

Scientifically analysing my past experiences:

If x = the amount of drinks I actually had
And i = the ideal amount

i = x - x

What can I say, I’m a lightweight

If I had to think *really* hard to figure this out, maybe I’ve already had enough

Right, it’s gonna be one of those nights, eh, insomnia?

Hello, darkness my old friend. I've come to talk to you again. Because a vision softly creeping. Of your clock that will soon be beeping.

How's that for a lullaby?

Well, if it's  not your clock beeping, you should see a doctor.
