Wide Awake
"Does he love me? No, for he never told me so. It was all in my mind, Neglecting the signs, As if I'm blind. I'm accepting it now, 'Cause if his love was true, Doubt won’t linger, but it grew. If he truly cared, he would have shown, And now, I would not be alone. It's been so long, yet I am still dreaming. My silent...

Wide Awake and Sleepless
The Laws of time seem elastic In the long insomniacal night That expands into an eternity With no end seemingly in sight. It’s half past Wednesday week By the real world’s steady clock But in the land of the sleepless A time check can bring a shock. Although it seems so many hours Since you looked to check it last In the strange fugue...

Wide Awake
It isn’t a dream when you feel wide awake There’s only so much of this world I can take It pulses through my veins, I’m starting to shake Like a dream and a nightmare, but I’m wide awake Not a dream nor a nightmare, cause I’m wide awake Bite Size Poem no.43 Poetry Contest...

Lost Once Again--Wide Awake--In Eden's Articulate Garden
Sweet precarious slumber... I am night falls eager muse daylights withdrawn fiend consuming my once heavy lids yet-- the sleeping draught has plagued me just as before. If I’m quiet long enough, I can hear the lingual effects like listening to a voice that won’t stop speaking even after my tongue has long since been tucked in for the night. Mindless...

Clattering coins forcefully flung inside a fragmented glass jar, doleful howls full of misery, woe nocturnal creatures arise, rapid rotations, continual tornados tedious echos beneath a derelict railway tunnel, nefarious lightning strikes the thunder, rolling immensely enraged she roars fighter jets in fury, disturbed bees, swarming their hive stalking, terrorising, pestering a solo stone plunges down a bottomless well, belligerent twangs upon a jilted ukulele, these were her hunger...

Wide Awake
I'm wide awake this time Our love's a clever crime Running on the stairs of heaven Sometimes, I wish I feel alive again I'm wide awake again in your awfully bizarre shoes I wish I can feel alive this time It's hard to even fathom your problematic issues Our love's an extra mile crime An extra mile crime I'm wide awake I'm about to...

Premium Member A Wide Awake Snooze Made Me Scream
A wide awake snooze made me scream Held me in the clutches of a well-earned dream. An elephant in pajamas came running up fast. He pushed me aside, and made the sign of a bast. A wide awake snooze held me captive in my head. I thrashed and I crashed,, and I fell out of the bed. My dad yelled, "What's...

My impetuous pirate self-jumps up to play I snarl and yell at her to just go away She laughs as I hide my hazel eyes from her sight Her faerie soul knows my heart with all of her might I try to re-capture my delicious dream so dear But she settles on my stomach and giggles in my ear I guess...

Wide Awake
She called out in a loud voice in what was long since then Remembering back to that choice, what would have been For now she was all alone with no place to hide that pain Once the Light had shone, well, feelings are hard to feign Falling down to her knees, her hands covering her face She called out...

Wide Awake -A Hero's Departure
Wide Awake (A Hero's Departure) I awoke from a dream, a childlike slumber Perfectly still, as to not let the vision slip Within the eyes of a child, a hero was born Safe, soft, a beautiful gift But in moments of deepest despair, No hero remained, or had existed at all (it would seem) Promises of love fall flat behind the facades, the fear of...

No Light and Wide Awake
no light and wide awake i touch you after sixteen hours and the unrelenting pain no light and wide awake i relax as the vibrating reactions of my touch send inspiration for short but sweet slumber to my mind no light and wide awake dread dissipates as my body rejuvenates and prepares for the long but essential more of the same day that keeps me...
