Sleepless

I'm oh so tired

Time is blurred through teared eyes

Fun is no matter, time never flies

Sleepless for days, a growing fatigue

Insects climb the walls, three hours in the past week

Let's give up the effort, it's not going to come

Stiff on the floor, through the window enters the sun

Plagued forever with soreness and pain

Not even soothed by the sound of the rain

I've smashed a switch in my mind

Racing thoughts until it's fried

It won't turn off now, I fear

Forever running into the coming years

I'm weak and tired

Nights are long and wired

Seeing things that aren't there

Painted on, a blank stare

Madness descends

Insomnia never ends

An apology to my friends

Sleeplessness has driven me here

And I welcome now the sleep that doesn't end
