I Predict Another Sleepless Night

Tossing and turning,
In my bed,
Memories, churning,
Blood in my head.

Salt in my bloodstream,
Night in my salt,
Anything innocent,
Isn't my fault.

Flaws in my fault line,
Cracks in my flaws,
Throwing my hours,
Through cold, open doors.

Marks on my woodwork,
Marks, dark and light,
I predict yet another,
Disturbed, sleepless night.

White Sheets

My legs are untangled From these wicked sheets, That hold me down in prison, As I try to sleep. My thoughts are stirring, Conquests on my mind, As if it's though I'm falling To very fast to find.

Outside And Inside

On the outside, I am calm. I am not angry. On the inside, I am screaming. I am angry. On the outside, I have respect. I have peace. On the inside, I have lost all respect for most people.

Elevators To Space.

There's a bloody flame Licking in my eyes, And a sick knot Shredding my stomach. I think the sky isn't my answer. I failed that aspect again, And to reach for it now Is admitting defeat to myself.

Sleep?

The lack of sleep is puzzling me, The bags under my eyes are bursting at the seams. Night and day is slowly becoming the same thing, Slowly but surely my mind and body is changing.

My lack of sleep leaves me in complete despair, It makes my mind feel as though its in need of repair.

The Escapism Of A Hopeless Insomniac

She lay there and gazed upwards at the spiralling and swirled pattern dancing with fatigue across her ceiling with nothing but him occupying her every thought, her every molecule, her every moment.

Dream Sweet sleep

How can I raw like meadows. Disappear like wind. Dreams without solid ground. Noises sounding round and round. Bitten tongues bleeding. Racing and dropping. Aching level head.

β€’Insomniaticβ€’

10:30pm antsy, pacing the room and studying every little nicknack on my bedside table...all I hear is my mother locking up for the night 12:06am anxious...I'm the only one awake.

You need a hot toddy - whiskey and hot water with a bit of honey = I sleep until morning! Failing that, herbal sleeping tablets (Kalms etc) work like a charm

@Irrational_Kimmi Stop it! You're making my mouth water like hell!!! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜πŸΈ

@MelchiorJ13 I don't really like whiskey that much but it's a damn good nightcap!

@Irrational_Kimmi Haha, I have an uncanny adoration for honey πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ― I'm like Winnie the Pooh! πŸ˜‚πŸ˜πŸ˜πŸ˜

🍯= iOS 6 jar of honey @Irrational_Kimmi

@MelchiorJ13 I too adore honey - on toast, in green tea 😍 it pretty much works on any food!

@Irrational_Kimmi I have a serious addiction to green tea πŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ’šπŸ’š

@MelchiorJ13 I know! I've seen the photographic evidence from your middle of the night Instagram pics. You're a green tea junkie β˜•πŸ˜
