Tick -Tock - Tick - Won't that clock shut up?
Silence. That's better.. Now, I can fall asleep,
Seconds pass.. Minutes pass.. Hours pass..
I've forgotten that sleep and I don't get along,
I lie awake thinking about its dreams,
Dreams that I was once promised,
It's not the same, never the same as before,
I miss being able to instantly sleep,
Or sleep at all..
The world by day kept me awake,
For I fall into naps during light hours, but it's not the same,
deep sleep is what I long for,
Delicious sleep in the land of milk and honey,
Held in warmth escaping from reality,
It's this brain of mine, that I can't shut off,
It racks and storms away with thoughts,
Think - Think - Think - Why, I can't stop thinking?
Silence. So it seems.. Now, I can't seem fall to sleep.
