Notches
It’s strange how even when I do nothing all day,
I feel the need to unwind in some way!!
Is this exhaustion or just a mental state?
Because when the day goes on, it’s for night that I wait.
Is it tranquility or peace of that hour?
Or is silence and stillness its power
The gentle breeze and the sway of leaves
The sound of crickets that remain unabridged
The night is strange, it has always been the same!
While some relax at this hour others grow to fame!!
