A Billion Bumblebees

Trying to sleep in strange beds.

Waiting for the perfect moment.

I wonder what it's like

To ease the stress.

For the rest of us,

Our minds turned to rampage.

Almost always,

The world stopped searching.

I wish I knew the details.

The narrow span of days between.

But in my head

Were a billion bumblebees.

[Nathan Mann]

very relatable, brief, and too the point.

[Jetta Zippora]

A very intriguing and thought-provoking write. Love that every line is sharp, concise, and has deep meaning.

I know how it feels like to have restless nights; not very pleasant. Every stanza in that poem really moved me. I knew that I could relate. I wish you peace and ease of mind.

I got the feel that the writer wishes they were someone else most times and would welcome the assumed peace that others seem to enjoy but I dont know if the grass is greener. If we walk a mile in their shoes - is a common remark - I sure wouldnt like to have a billion bumblebees in my head though, the big one the size of my brain is one too many already
I like your style Svetlana
