Rest Assured

Rest assured,
it hurts,
that every reason to stay up late,
has dispersed,
into reminicent quips and
and catch phrases,
every backspaced sentence worth revealing,
I, who edits and erases.
Restless assured,
I can't sit still,
pacing a path into my floor,
powerless to impose even my own will,
what is it,
and where will it lead,
straight to dead ends where we're chased by guard dogs,
I, who screams and bleeds.
Assured,
by a lack of sacrifice and vision,
poised ready to jump,
ready, whenever given proper permission,
Guided by
a failing light of self-reliance,
flckering against cavernous walls,
I, whose chains have begun to rust.
Rest,
someday in arms strong as they are soft,
searching, by day of course,
but not because I'm lost,
for a chance to expand,
the surface the flickering light has touched,
setting eyes ablaze,
I, whose rest has brought much.
