Insomnia

{Post: 73/365}

isn't it odd

that when you should be tired

and sleeping like a baby

you are wide awake

body thrumming

mind racing

creating

whirling

thinking

wake dreaming instead

of dreaming in sleep

and otherwise

up and open to

night time possibilities

but everyone else

is sleeping

so quiet is a must

don't disturb the slumber

of the lucky people

whose minds and bodies

have naturally given them rest

just write a poem

drink sleepytime tea

and relax

hoping for sleep to come again
