Trying To Sleep

The light from the window danced on the wall Projecting the branches of the tree outside Like a painting in the dark. My melatonin wasnt working So I watched the light And I thought about California, and Idaho, And Italy, and Egypt Until I finally fell asleep

Loved the poem. Often find it difficult to sleep and I try all sort of things to sleep. Roaming the world/s, real and imaginary seems a nice way to drift into Hypnos' realm.
