My eyelids drooping
My heart rate slowing
My body relaxing
Hours slipping away
But I can't sleep
5 seconds of peacefulness
5 minutes of physical comfort
5 hours of sleep
5 days of nightmares
5 weeks of melatonin
Can't sleep
My mind still busy
My thoughts still coming
My foot still tapping anxiously
The night still passing by
No sleep coming
Why must my mind torture me?
Why can't I just go to sleep?
Why didn't I fall asleep 3 hours ago?
Because my mind won't stop
No matter how tired I am
I'm so tired.
