Stare at ceiling,
hair spreads on bed sheets
like snakes slithering
on silk ground.
Walls crumble down,
lost within
a duststorm.
Shroud settles, fades;
a flat earth
marked by horizons,
an empty universe
blinking above.
Soothing;
I find peace in solitude.
Stand up,
dancing gently on toes
like poised ballerinas,
gentle breeze blows hair.
In tune with the rhythm
of my beating heart,
the inhales and the exhales;
got my groove back on,
energised, prepared
to take over my life.
