Sleep

My mind is racing.

Tossing and turning.

It goes back and forth constantly.

Playing music, it doesn't help sooth the savage beast in my mind.

So I lay there.

Staring at the ceiling.

The night time hours are wasting away.

My pillow isn't the problem.

The bed is just fine.

I'm not too hot or cold.

What could it be?

Is it worries that plague my thoughts?

No, I have had an easy day.

Could it be drama cluttering my brain?

Nothing like that has happened today.

Could it be memories I dread to relive?

It could possibly be so.

I just hope they give up on these games.

I need to sleep real soon.

Some of us have work tomorrow.
