Best Sleeplessly Poems


Poetic Silence, for Silent One
When poetic silence  , 
spoke to me
through midnight violence,  
it kept my restless heart calm~
as I was hypnotized in a trance,  
waltzing sleeplessly  
on an island so reckless, 
The soothing petals in my garden 
were now a scent of serenity, 
I...

“Psychotic hallucinations, whether they are visual or vocal, they address you. They accuse you. They seduce you. They humiliate you.
They jeer at you. You interact with them.”
Oliver Sacks  

This is not an illusive myth,
this is my unspoken tale,
woven in infernal syllables of sorrow,
of how...

Passed Out
Toot, toot goes the train.
Jump, jump goes the brain.
Moved to a new house.
Old one had a mouse.
Sometimes change is good.

It's all the same!
Play the sleep game!
INSOMNIAC!
INSOMNIAC!

I can't sleep!
I can't sleep!
SLEEPLESSLY!

Passed out!
Passed out! 

DREAM!!!

Dear Heart
Until I see her again, my heart remains broken

There’s a special Angel up in Heaven who I miss with each beat of my heart. I suppose her purpose on earth was limited, for God took her too soon from me, and everyone else who loved...

Many Moons
Echo of distant cries,
quadruped steps deepening into dusk—
wind folding the earth’s breath.
Craftsman of the spider web,
seas of lightning possessing the sky.

Guardian of the other side,
conceiver of comings and goings,
I will meet you soon—
after the waning of many moons,
God-willing—I will meet you soon! 

Til then 
you...

Dark Perceptions
As misty glows engulf the evening sky
An awkward silence takes flight 
From those fleeting moments of joy
You see tricks that deceive, tricks of sleight

The lights are bright and they're screaming aloud
Forget your thoughts, they can wait it out
Pieces of the jigsaw that won't fit
That's the...

Gentle But Dangerous
I listen to your sound
It's a sound of happiness, a sound of fear
I want to go deep inside you
But, somehow I don't want to be so near

I look at you with wonder
My feets are sinking in these yellow sands
I gaze at you with curiousity
Your powerful...

Ty
Dreaming sleeplessly
I'm in a deep sleep regardless
Of what you say thotlessly 
Damage the distress in progress
You sent me letters and emails
Thank you...I'd like to say Thank You
Every time I walk - five thousand fails
Thank you for not making me blue, boo
In perspective, I'm trying so...

Too Good Too Be True
time anticipates
time is all, right?
time can tell,
it can mend
time carries on 
in the end

this misconception of reality
has driven me to the point of insanity
sleeplessly fulfilled
an agony of fear
what is coming

patiently await
for what you can relate
fluctuating on the ongoing
debate

inner thoughts drowned by your realm-
of a presence...

When Memories Fade
Restlessly and endlessly, but don’t carelessly watch your memories recklessly
Fading solemnly but tremendously superficially
Staying wholly happy with evident melodies
Quickly and rapidly, physically and mentally
Hungrily grab narrowly and slowly onto your memories
As it quietly goes deeply, sleeplessly, yet neatly
Likely your memories shall call fearfully and carefully
But...

Ode to NYC
I gave my heart away to you
On the night that new year drew
The Sinatra chimes and yellow vines
Sleeplessly anew

City of dreams, built on piano keys
And indie structures melodies
I left my heart in San Francisco**
But i stole it back for you


**this is a reference to Tony...

I Weep For You
The morons have no heart,
they are heartless. 
In the left side of their brain,
nothing is right.
In the right side of their brain, 
nothing is left. 
That's why they use their
stony heart to break heads
as Palm kernel nuts.
Oozing out of their mouths
are crafty cunning words. 
A...

You've meant so deeply much; within my desire
If I could present a world or build an empire
It would be so easy to secretly conspire
In a way that you would not find hard to admire
Happiness for me; sought just nurturing your purist fire
You see my genuine...
