Insomniac '05



The lights go out



but not a sound







three days awake



this isn't a joke



my body trembles;constant shakes







temples ache



my muscles are weak



my visions a blue



short term memory gives out



forget all that can incur







my head is reeling



spinning in circles



pain & throbbing



out of control



i can not deal







want to close my eyes



dream a good dream



each night;it's not a surprise



i see no passing stream







the lights go out



but not a sound



no sense of doubt



eternal wakefulness;she is bound
