Thoughts of An Insomniac

Who am I?
The question upon thy lips
unable to answer
need a helping hand
I feel you close
I know you can answer
I sit alone and wait for you
though your getting closer
still too far away
but I'm the one thats moving
is it that I fear the answer?
The answer to my question?
alas it's true
I will never know
because I do not wish to know
I don't need or desire your help
so keep away
ignore my pleas
it's for the best you understand.
