Sleepless NightsA Poem by cbennettThis poem just describes a little on the challenge's of me sleeping every night.I
lay up at night In
my soft empty bed Tossing
and turning From
these thought’s in my head There
are no delete or erase kind of tabs To
clear all this s**t that are forming like scabs You
beg and you plead for one single night To
be able to sleep like all is alright You
stare at the celling and start counting the squares And
start thinking of reason’s that nobody care’s You
want to get up but you don’t want to leave Because
the warmth in your blanket only makes you believe That
you will find that one person to help you not grieve And
makes it seem like those memories were just thought you perceived You
think about all that has pull-in you down And
give 20 more reasons why you should not frown They
all were just bumps and mistakes in your path That
spun you around like a tornado in wrath So
when I lay down and close my eyes in my bed Ill
no longer think of my past that I dread Instead I will sleep like a baby or rock An wake up in the morning and just glance at the
clock Because sleepless night are over and gone © 2013 cbennett |
