Take a pill for this and take a pill for that
Lock the doors, turn out the lights and don't forget the cat
Put on your pj's

I’m trapped again in this dizzy dance
Where I writhe alone, spinning
In this restless trance.

Back and forth as the tide

Insomnia

No sleep.
No escape.
She is haunting the house now, moving like shadow;
Light as a whisper in the almost- morning
No

I wish to sleep, on heavy eyes
just one minute, please tantalize
But alas, as soon as I begin to dream
I am awakened, by this

If windows would close long enough,

Maybe unexpected dreams would rise

And challenge pain

That keeps insomnia company.
