AM Poem Sheep

Not sure why I sometimes think of something-like poetry when I can't sleep. I don't know how to write good poems, but at this hour of the night who cares?

_____________________________________________________________________________________

Words scrawled upon a page,

hazy thoughts, escape their cage.

Freed children, off to play.

Nothing to care, nothing to say.

Sleep, come and cover me;

stop this floating, lost at sea.

Reasons remain cruel and unclear,

dreams don’t live, at least not here.

Insomnia, an unwelcome friend;

you stay with me until the neverend.

I feel your pain, brother. Sleep issues dating back to 2002. Just take advantage of the extra time.
