The sound of my thoughts are deafening,
the rain no longer soothing.
I just want to sleep.

Frantically tossing and turning amongst the sheets.
I just want to sleep.

Crying and screaming for it all to stop.
Please let me sleep.

Pulling at my hair,
my breathing has quickened.
I just want to sleep.

My thoughts are racing,
I can't close my eyes.
I just want to sleep.

Hours have passed,
I can see the sun rising.
Now can I sleep?

I manage to close my eyes,
and shut out the world.
Now I can sleep.
I suffer from insomnia from time to time and last night, this is how it felt. Atleast I turned it into something creative...
