Does the night have 

fewer questions, or are you naturally 

allowed more substantive time 

       for thought?

Our daylight hours require agility 

to navigate ever-present issues

which matter more to others 

than to your self. Anxiety overwhelms, 

even on good days.    Never are you

       of the mind to deal with it.

   There is always something else.

           Always, all ways, always.

     Nighttime is more 

than a reprieve. Darkness allows you 

to breathe easier, it seems. Mind 

always active, in a certain sort of way, 

     even in sleep you seem 

           to find your way.
