Vastly tired, but cannot rest
Wait for peace that will not come.
Now lying in the chilling darkness
It’s taunting, jeering, at my plight
I toss and turn without avail
Is it any use to try?
Checking the rude clock with sleepless eyes
I grow wearier as time crawls
Silence is now loudly laughing
As I lie here, I start to wonder,
Are dreams better than what is real?
Will sleep still this endless night?

Insomnia

Topic: insomniac

I sit, woken, never dreaming
Vastly tired, but cannot rest
Wait for peace that will not come.
Now lying in the chilling darkness
It’s taunting, jeering, at my plight
I toss and turn without avail
Is it any use to try?
Checking the rude clock with sleepless eyes
I grow wearier as time crawls
Silence is now loudly laughing
As I lie here, I start to wonder,
Are dreams better than what is real?
Will sleep still this endless night?
