The nights go by,
sometimes it feels like I'm going to die.
But still my eyes, they have not closed,
still my mind stays exposed.
The lack of sleep destroys reality,
slowly tearing apart my fragile mentality.
I see in nothing but darkness,
and I realize I am heartless.
As this pain continues further,
I realize I am in the middle of a fatal merger!
My life is crashing down,
heading towards its end and spiraling towards the ground.
Reality hits like a tidal wave,
and I realize it cannot be saved.
So now I fall to my bed,
wishing that it was over and that I was dead.
Author's Notes/Comments:
I put this poem up first, because it popped into my mind as soon as I saw the category Insomnia/Restless. Like all my poems, it took only about five minutes to compose in my head, and it flowed together amazingly.
A note: I am making this poem my first, so I can put this comment in as warning. I do not suffer fools well, and I have little to no care for peoples Critique. I will read it, but don't expect me to change. I am a stubborn 18 year old, who's view on this tattered world cannot change. If you like it, awesome, I will probably get along with you well. If you don't, oh well, I'll probably get along with you well still. Also, please no religious stuff. :) Thank you.
