"Sleepless Nights"

I can't sleep tonight

I shouldn't wonder why

So I search for something to write

A poem, a song, or a lie?

Still, I'm confused

Or rather, just guilty

No! I won't lose

A futile thing isn't worthy.

I tried to write in my diary

'cause my thoughts are too hard to bear

Not certain of the reason

Behind all these confusion.

I decided to write everything

That happened throughout the day

And something flashed back

A mistake I can't take back.

Wrong deeds I paid no heed

Are all coming back to me.

Sleepless nights like tonight

Are caused by conscience, am I right?

My memory says that this is my 3rd/2nd English poem. :)
