Rem

many nights I couldn't sleep
lay awake from dark till dawn
plump my pillow, toss and turn
those nights are finally gone

I lay here unprotected
without sleep I didn't dream
that's when you slip in
as quickly as my REM's

how can I get any rest?
is this some kind of test?
you and sleep are linked
you haunt every dream

gonna go back to sleepless nights
drink caffeine till it gets light
if that is the only way
I can keep these dreams at bay

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.
