Turning life’s empty page

Optimism running dry

Uncertainty arrives

Shifting darkness stands by

Flickering light of thoughts

Mind never seeking rest

Sporadic, impatient

Inviting nightly guest

Dreaming, story unfolds

Deeper into its script

Narrative continues

Typing empty transcript

Soothing spirit walks in

Please, please never depart

Stardust now raining down

Replacing mind with heart

Waking at early dawn

Empty page, still waiting

Writer’s pen left untouched

Seeing light, dictating
