Inside me
there is a stormy sea
rolling and crashing
beneath slate clouds,
heavy;
making me breathless.
But soon,
peace comes,
as grey skies
turn to ink
and the sea,
now soothed,
sounds like
a lullaby.
My eyes close
and I crumple
into sleep.

Inspired by Writealm’s September prompts for last Friday and today ‘inside me’ and ‘crumple’.
the sea is definitely a lullaby; i used to love our summers spent at the sea, falling asleep to the sound of the sea…so soothing.
I love the sound of the sea, it definitely works as a lullaby on me – lovely words again Jane. Looks like we’ve both been neglecting writing for a few days lately, hope all is well with you xx
It really is a lullaby isn’t it : ) I am fine thanks…just not had my writing head in gear for a while. Work is mega busy and home too. Hope you’re well? xx
