Insomnia

Every night I lie awake

With the troubling feeling inside my bones

It clouds my mind and leaves an ache

With my body feeling as hard as stone

I see the moon, it watches me

Mocking my nonexistent dreams

I stare back a bitter teen

To the ending of its gleam

I wish, I long, to go to sleep

For the sake of the day to come

So, each night I weep and weep

Till I see the rising of the sun

Could it be a mental thing?

The fear of the next day

Or the excessive amount of restless nuzzling

That makes me feel like a dog that's been led astray

But when the time finally comes, for sleep to take over

I am asleep, but not asleep at all
