Insomnia

It's three a.m and I'm in bed Lots of thoughts fill my head I've tried to sleep but I cannot I just toss and turn a lot Even if my eyes I close I cannot sleep I cannot doze I could get up and watch TV Or read a book or make some tea I've heard it said if you count sheep You will drift right off to sleep But that didn't work for me I was still awake at five hundred and three Now my clock tells me its four I really cannot take much more I have to go to sleep again Now outside I can hear rain The pitter patter on the pane The soothing rhythm of the rain Makes me feel safe and warm in here My troubled thoughts just disappear Now I feel morphias warm embrace The tension slowly leaves my face All my troubles fade away And I'll sleep sound till break of day
