Sleep sleep sleep,
Still can't sleep
Even though I'm tired and crumpled in bed in a strange heap.
7 hours left before I wake,
The slow countdown begins for my sanity to break
Hours spent thinking and thinking
Long sighs and hope slowly sinking.
The darkness envelops your vision at first but then you see things more clearly in the dark,
Only a few more hours left before the alarm starts to bark,
The darkness becomes an empty canvas for your imagination to run wild with images and thoughts,
But that won't stop your self doubts cessate its daily taunts.
Am I the only one wide awake taking part in this nightly ritual?
There must be others? Or am I the only individual?
I'm still awake and continuing this nightly battle,
Hopefully along with others trapped as Insomnias cattle...?
