we both search for a place to rest our head
truly rest our head
a place where we can trust those around us
a place where we feel safe
a place that will put us at ease
I know we are not alone in this search
I wonder will we ever find that place
for does it even exist?
people may ask
“do you not rest you r head ever night when you sleep”
I lay my head at night
I do not rest it
therefore I do not sleep
I only sink into a dark obis of pain
from the past
and from the future
for my mind will never be idle unless it is at rest
it can not do that until I find that place
the one we both search for
a place to rest our head
those people who have found this place
truly take it for granted
for I have lived most of my life searching for this place
therefore I haven't truly slept
truly rest since I was but a child
a child with an idle mind
for most when you grow up your mind worries
your mind is no longer idle
there are a lucky few who stay
stay idle
oh how lucky they are
those who have found it don't understand the pain we go threw trying to find it
searching for it
for the have never been to that dark and painful obis
the one we are trapped in every night
well their minds go idle
and fill with dreams
for a dream I have never dreamt
only nightmares in the obis
and none of fiction
all are true
