Sleepless Nights

Sleepless Nights

A Poem by cbennett
"

This 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

I will look at my life, just laugh and grab on
