My body is both
Rejecting and accepting
The idea of sleep
Tossing and turning
Searching for comfort
There's no winning here
Passing the time
With happier thoughts
Only to make it worse
Every now and again
I'm peacefully drifting away
Into the nether of my mind
I used to so often
I wonder what happened
To those blissful days
Where there was no fight
For a night of sleep
I'm exhausted in numerous ways...
And somehow I struggle to sleep.
