When sleep calls and you fail to answer.

A new door is open but not for a world of nightly slumber.

All tucked in bed, both feet under the blanket.

Mind games with a monster, sleep being gambit.

Eyes closed as silence completely surrounds you.

However the loudness of the mind then tends to ignore you.

Your fight of getting rest for a new day.

Melatonin fails to ground you as restlessness takes you away.

Another night another failed fight.

How these wishes that are wished upon stars for sleep one of these nights.
