Sleepers Awaken

Earth you weep for us at times

Scurrying around your surface like ants

Lost in a technological whirlwind

So often divorced from our deeper kin

Is it any wonder that at times

The weeping willow cries

At mankind’s severed state

And yet

Wait

It is never too late

For us sleepwalkers to awaken

All it will take

Is the haunting call

Of our souls and bodies in pain

As we slowly realise

We were not born to sustain

A life where our bodies bury

Hidden tears

And invisible longings

Deep inside

For reconnection with you

The mother that holds us

The clouds that cover us

The rain that soothes us

The ocean of rest and deep feeling

That calls to us from deep with our souls

Sleepers

Awaken

I long too for you
