Tablet

9:30 Beep A reminder rings Its time to induce sleep yet again I get a cold glass of water and slowly swallow the little blue tablet. I walk to my bed with aching bones and tired eyes. I slowly pull back the blankets almost falling over from sheer exhaustion I am young but frail and tired. I lay down my head hits the pillow They feel like liquid bricks surrounding my skull I try to sleep but I am unsuccessful yet again Oh ,well Its just another sleepless night.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
