Writer's Insomnia
My brain‘s sprung a leak
Words are tumbling out
Good, bad, happy, sad
It doesn’t matter
They fall onto the page
I can’t sleep
Repressed for so long they’ve rallied and escaped
Running free, punishing me
At any cost
They force me to write
I can’t focus
Words flow through my mind
Verse, lines, lyric and rhymes
Holding me hostage
They show no relenting
