[bodytext] => At night I stay up late Tossing and turning throughout the night in my bed Sleepless nights go about day after day My eyes heavy with exhaustion ready for a break But when I lay my head down on my pillow, my mind begins to race Hundreds of thousands of things run about my mind Preventing my tired eyes from sleep I think about school and work I think about love About life About the past, present and future I think about all those “what ifs” that I will never know about I think about all the mistakes I’ve made I think about all my dreams and wishes that have never came true I think about all the regrets I have of things I did or didn’t do So many things cross my mind the moment these green eyes of mine close Why can’t I get peaceful rest? Why do I have this restless, uneasy slumber night after night? Why cant my mind just take a break so my eyes and heart can rest? Why do I lie awake half the night thinking of ways to sleep? An uneasy rest for my unsettled mind Why cant my mind just give me a break from my problems for several hours a night? Why does my curiosity and anguish plague me after those lights go out? I guess I will never know till they are solved Till I can sleep soundly throughout the night like I used to But for now I stay up late with my thoughts With these heavy eyes of mine longing for sleep With these thoughts of an insomniac [comments] => 0 [counter] => 181 [topic] => 60 [informant] => fastpitchqt [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 3 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => insomniac )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
