Sleepless Nights

Sleepless nights kidnapping the score of dreams In moods of jeopardy to keep drama underground, Until some iconic moments release pixel images Of secret Insomnia lodges before they were found. Enjoined taunts turn brighter lights on in the head, Some familiar pattern emerges from the storage Macabre journal sleeping at the other side of the bed, Reading the diary fills more watery pages with rage. Looking back over sleepless rooms in confident air Some debonair are put back into secret frames. But those expose are the ones we choose to share, Leaving the skeleton standing there without names. A phantom walking the floors sleepless in the night, And dine with frozen moments in the lull of time, Memories explained creaking noises in slimmer light, Echoes never silent always knowing something refine. Appear prickly in smoky images come from deep inside Wanting wishes before boatloads of changes sail away, Freeze the moments with view of cold slides from outside, Pour tears into the dreary eyes dream that won't stay. Long enough to see the things they want to do Or to do anything at all before the scenery disappear, Never call again on mystic places where the mind go, To stare, but wouldn’t want a reminder to go too far.
