Tired

~~~~~

I wish it would rain
so I could curl up with the sound
and drift away in the rhythm

My bones are tired ...
and my back is broken
in too many pieces
of worn out news

I need to get to that place
where I can float down a river of darkness
and drown in a sea of tranquility

~~~~~

Beautiful
I know exactly what you are talking about. I could feel your weariness, almost void of hope..

Hell yeah, I need to get there too. And my visits seem to have longer and longer between them.
