As the night draws near
my restlessness begins
heart pounding
at the thought of sleeping
for some unknown reason
i know tonight
i will not sleep
try as i might
My mind is empty but yet so full
nothing makes sense
so colourful but also so dull
thoughts entwinned with each other
memories i see
but not had
does this make sense?
Not to me
Laying there in the darkness of night
fighting for sleep
with all my might
let me rest
with no pictures in my head
Why are you there?
I ask in silence
no answer comes
just more colours and pictures
feeling like i have been here before
with no recollection
Go away and leave me alone
stay away, be gone
