I want to sleep but I can't



I want to sleep but

I just have a feeling if I

Laid down my leg will start to

Twitch on the

Inside all night long.

So as much as like

To sleep I rather

Stay busy and try

Not think about

The nerve in my leg

Bothering me. What

I don’t understand is

Why can’t I ever get a

Normal night’s rest like

Everybody else? It annoys

Me so. I just have a few more

Days to go and the feeling

Of my seizures should be over

For awhile! If I can just stay strong

And hold on!
