~Charlotte Brontë
I had to ask myself, why? Why fretful and lost for sleep? Why the surge of anxiety and annoyance? Where has the calm and serenity of the past days gone?
Last night was terrible. I lay there eyes awake, heart throbbing, a body trying with all resolve to will its mind to surrender to the lure of a deep sweet slumber. But - merciless, it would not.
Was the pull of playful Luna on a gentle star lit February evening playing tricks on me? Or was it because the empty half of my bed longs for the one who has long laid claim to it? Perhaps both.
All I know, is..... I didn't sleep.
dear heart

Hi Lady. Hope all is okay with you. Strange...I had a hard time getting to sleep last night too. I think though it was because I drank some coffee in the evening and of course you know how that goes. I hope you get much needed rest and think good thoughts. ::sending good thoughts your way::
ReplyDeleteTake care and have a great weekend.
Oh I forgot...your description of menudo sounds interesting. It is different than the menudo I make but your ingredients sound better.:D Take care.
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to sleep when someone is missing from the bed. It's as though absence takes up everything - sucks it up - leaving us with that listless, restless feeling.
