Poetry: Insomnia

by Amber Agarand

Created on: December 02, 2008

I lay on my back

waiting for sleep to take me

but even if it does

the smallest things wake me

bad dreams bad night

bad days all at once

things unfinished

nothing done

I wonder if I have time tomorow

to do it

I wonder if I'll have the patience

not to throw a fit

I wait and I wait

the sandman at bay

I know I could sleep

so still I lay

but it won't come so I give up

pour a bath

finally sleep comes at last

last sleep last
