Sleep Not

sleep.
no sleep.
mind racing.
intensity.
so much to sy.
who will listen?
never tired.
sleep not.
fast.
so fast my thoughts.
pages.
so many pages.
who will hear me?
is my messege to never be heard?
my messege.
will you understand?
sleep not.
for i must write.
fill the pages.
pour out my thoughts.
so much to say.
no time to sleep.
sleep not.
for there is much to say.

i'm well acquainted with the demon of insomnia, though just lately i'm the opposite - can't keep my eyes open!
