Tired

As I lay alone in my bed,
Endless thoughts
Run through my head.

I want to scream.
I need my rest,
I long to dream.

Eyelids won't even droop.
My brain is running
An endless loop.

Insomniac is an understate.
The moon shines bright,
It's getting late.

It's long since my bedtime,
Getting harder
To make a rhyme.

I drank some Mountain Dew,
I regret and wonder,
What I must get through

To get to sleep

I'm in bed so early I've turned off every light, Darkness surrounds me Here, in the still of the night.

Still Awake

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.

Eyes Won't Close

As I sit here alone in the dark. With just the flicker of the TV. My eyes feel oh so heavy. My mind is all so hazy. I want to rest my weary head. Let my body just relax and sigh.

Cant Sleep. Yet Sleepy....

Up in the middle of the night. With just one star in sight. The sun is going higher. Will make the day brighter. I wonder why there is one star. Shining so high so far. I am up cause I can't sleep.

Insomnia

Insomnia how you plague me, Visiting only so late, I have no desire for your dull numbing power When consciousness is a permanent state.

Sleep

In that one moment sleep can take me. Willingly into its arms. Let me dream about winning. And a life without any harm. But once I set my head to rest. On a pillow I find the best.
