Insomniac

I want to sleep..

I close my eyes, I lay back

but I can never sleep

I'm an insomniac

 

I don't know why

I just can't sleep

when my eyes are heavy

and my body is weak

 

I don't need your help

your advise nor your pity

it just makes me feel inferior

like I am 'itty-bitty'

 

When I am too tired to function

I take 5 'sleeping tablets'

then lay wide eyed

on my Tempur-Pedic mattress

Twas a pleasure to visit "A Day in The Life of Jenna" as I have had my moments of insomnia. Tis a horrific experience in my opinion. Although I do not recommend the tablets, it was a great idea at the time. :-(

 

Thank you for sharing,

Sometimes I just don't sleep

Sometimes I just don't sleep for a a day or two. The poems I write during those times make it sound like i'm on drugs or something...
