My mind is going haywire
The least used corners I admire
Wide awake and grinning
Maybe my mind is spinning
They all sleep sleep sleep
While I try not to make a peep
Shh mind! Be quiet!
But inside there's a riot
There's a disputation going on inside
I'm sure something cried
I try to tire them by settling my head
They really don't want to go to bed
Just a little longer while I finish writing
Now stop this infernal fighting!

This pillow feels so soft. These eyes they weigh so much. But for some peculiar reason, To the waking world I clutch. There is no logic for it. My mind won't simply still. I'm going out of my head.
My mind,wide awake, So eager and so keen, But my eyes are so tired, I really need to sleep. I don't want to sleep, I'm not at all tired, How can I sleep, When there is so much for me to admire.
I'm in bed so early I've turned off every light, Darkness surrounds me Here, in the still of the night.
Sleep won't come,. As I toss and turn,. While sulking, alone,. My heart does yearn,. An ice block melting,. From hopes warm glow,. A wish for a summer,. A love without snow,. Let it be fruitful,.
Is it fear that prevents me from shutting my eyes. If so the fear of what. Dreams and subconscious lies. Do I really dread what awaits in slumber so much. Or am I and myself falling out of touch.
I opened up my dashboard, And I found my body's switch, I think I have an awful case, I'm too awake, a glitch.
Yet again I lie here awake. Waiting for sleep. I pray for goodness sake. Soon I'll be in a slumber, oh so deep. The night engulfs me. The sheets surround me. I'm as comfortable as can be.
@Emily_InspiresAll yeah, it's been more and more my story lately lol thank you for the repost hun 👍❤😄
@BethyBoo yeah my brain just thinks about everything and I don't wanna sleep.. But I have to. Speaking of which I probably should now haha night and you're welcome!:)
@Emily_InspiresAll 😄 yeah same and then I get excited or worked up about it and can't stop thinking and I'm up hours lol. Night haha ☺
Loved it! Good to know there are fellow insomniacs out there who go through the same ritual every night !
@Hauxstar2013 I'm not usually like this, but I have been lately, I guess the insomniac inside of me has decided to come out and play lol. I'm glad you like it though ☺
lol, the wording just made it all seem rather cute. It's annoying though, huh? @Hauxstar2013 Every. Single. Night. I hate it so much 😒
@Jamtots I don't know if you mean that in a good way or bad way but thanks 😄👍❤ and yes, very annoying!
@BethyBoo sorry, it was meant to be a good thing. I said it wrong >.< I meant... Idk. It was a cute poem and I liked it. ... Imma go lol.
@Jamtots lol don't say sorry, it's my fault ☺ lack of sleep makes me over think things ... It's like everything has two meanings when I'm tired 😄 I'm glad you liked it though haha 👍❤😄
@Jamtots 😄 okay, you got me there ... Communication skills might be a bit more important than me overthinking lol ☺
@Jamtots wish counting sheep would help but these days even the sheep would laugh at my failed attempts to sleep :(
@BethyBoo Poor you, it's horrid when you cannot sleep. The more you try the more it eludes you. Been there many times!! 🌙 hope you are ok tonight and slumbering peacefully in your bed. ✨🌟🌙✨🌟💤💤💤💤
@sleepydragon yeah, it is and yes! That's what happens to me so I end up sitting up for hours doing nothing :S. thank you, And thank you for the repost ☺👍❤
I know it sounds daft but would a little milk and a digestive biscuit help? I used to work nights as a nurse and my sleep got all muddled and I would find this really helped. ✨🌟🌙🌟✨💤💤💤
@sleepydragon I've never tried that but next time I'm having trouble with my sleep I'll be sure to give it a try 👍 thank you ☺❤🌙⭐
