Insomnia

Eyes wide open, struggling to close mind with no rest, makes me very upset I wont sleep tonight, tomorrow night, or the night after that. I cant. I wont sleep without saying goodnight. sitting awake for hours, restlessly; very aware of insomnia's powers. thinking about you, the grass, the flowers. clocks ticking.. slower and slower body with no sleep, makes me very weak. I wont sleep tonight, tomorrow night, or the night after that. I cant I wont sleep without telling you goodbye rocking back and forth, ive been sitting awake for hours and hours sitting; very aware of insomnia's powers. I wont sleep tonight, I cant.. not without telling you I love you and goodnight. [skitz]2009
