Incurable Insomnia

will  tell you,,why I dont sleep

 but  this  will only make me weep

 

the  sunken pride of my eyes

 all the dreams that I visualize,,

 

in my naked heart !

 the engine over here doesnt start !

 

i creep and crawl in the staircase

 and think of my pure golden days

 

i  am a patient of this incurable disease

 sucking my blood like a deadly leech

 

with this heavy and powerful Tryptomer 25gm

 I am still awake till 5.00 am !

 

No longer do I pray for the sunlight !

 i  love to walk in the moonlight !………..

Evoking positive energy, change, and hope are three main objectives of posting my poetry, although I must admit, writing is a completely different animal. This piece you have shared is very unique! I dig the words you've put down here! ~JSLambert

Smile ˜ Ahhhh, Your lovely beauty enticed myself with Your wonderful kindness to return unto Your Precious Heart again ˜ My Dear Beautiful Priceless Lady * I really do not feel at ease calling Your Beauty merely "Red" ˜ So I shall not yet, my words shall be sincere amid love I would say ˜ Your stirring poem here holds a bit of intrigue but, I have did my best as of recent times to view beyound the night so to speak ˜ To hold these hopes for all and not become ensnared amid the webs of something dark afore these eyes ˜ I would love to walk with Your Loveliness one day aneath the moonslight * Smile, and hear what Your Heart may impart ˜ Keep brushing these Treasures of You * My Love to You Always; John!:) ˜

Oooh, it paints a bit of a bleak image, but i guess insomnia does that! Somebodies been a busy girl past few days, i guess creation in all its manifestations never sleeps.

well written poem depicting the pros and cons of those drugs that stabilize the neuro transmitters for us folks. Sounds like the dosage may be a bit much if it doesn't let you sleep .... then again..... like you said// moonlight or sunlight that... is the question. Thanks for your comment, Red
