A Fool To Think...

I went to bed last night looking forward to burrowing myself between my sheets...finally home and finally to sleep...yet thoughts wouldn't stop running through my mind. Tired and frustrated, I laid my head on my pillow and felt a sweeping calmness come over me. There was nothing there and Everything all at once. I knew I was not alone. I laid in bed and tried to capture what it was that came to join me. It seemed to slip just out of reach when I got closer and closer. Afraid to fall asleep and lose it, I tried harder to constrain it. I spoke to it and tried to listen. Too soon, I awoke and remembered my visitor. He had left, but had not left me behind. Now I know, I'm not alone. I have never been and I'm only a fool to ever think I was.
