Insomnia
Insomnia swaggers into my room
And lays down beside me
Whispering of dreams I should be having…
Tightening his ever present grip
He suffocates me with wakefulness
And throws sand in my eyes…
Oh blackest night
Tie me in the bed covers
Dispel my misery…
Minutes tick by
He begins snoring
My thoughts flutter out of reach…
