words of me, myself, and i

insomnia

insomnia

the fear of nightmares that i have

prevents me from sleeping most nights

and it's really quite annoying.

when you go to bed

with fear in the pit of your stomach,

it keeps you up

and makes your mind wander.

my sleepless nights and tired days

usually get the best of me.

as i go about my day,

i fall asleep reading

which is really the only thing that keeps me sane.

my headaches have gotten worse;

my eyes have gone droopy and bloodshot.

my body is tired

along with my mind.

as i write this,

i do have to say,

it is late where i sit

in the outskirts of a big town.

i can not sleep,

so i must ask,

do any of you fellow insomniacs

want to chat?
