The Oddest Feeling

written by: OurSacredHonor

It's late at night
But I can't fall asleep
I sit here in silence
Not so much as a peep
Except the whisper
From the window
The rustle
As the wind blows
That assures
Me today
That everything
Will be ok

Can't think straight
Don't know why
I feel like
I'm not all right
Things just aren't
In the right place
Everything
Seems out of phase
Asymmetrical
Incongruent
I'm lost in
This moment
I know things are bad
And I know I'm far away
But tonight, for some odd reason
I feel everything's ok

This is the oddest feeling
And I can't sort it out
Like I'm lost but yet found
While I'm flying on the ground
Singing a silent sound
That you hear
So clear
Even though other answers sound appealing
This is the oddest feeling

With these final words
I lay my head down to rest
To dream the night away
In hopes that happiness
Will knock on my door in morning
And wake me with the sun
I'll open my eyes to a new sunrise
Knowing a new day has begun
