Magpie Tales 279 - Spirals in My Mind

Visual Prompt Provided by The Mag

Thoughts
in the dark of the night
spiraling up 
from the depth of sleep
pulling my mind
into
consciousness.

Worries
spiraling out of control
climbing higher
with increasing thoughts of doom
chasing sleep
away.

Staircase
of dread climbing ever higher
hamster wheel thinking
spiraling in my mind
higher
faster.
