Tossing and turning
All night long
Falling asleep
Then waking up
Couldn’t sleep at all
My mind wouldn’t shut off
2am and still awake
Can I just go to sleep
For heavens sake
Left the bed
Came out to the comfy chair
Finally felt relaxed
When binx(my cat)
Curled up with me
Purring so loud, on my lap
Fell asleep for a little
In my comfy chair
Moved back to the bedroom
Around 4:30 am
Finally sleeping
Without a care

Why wouldn’t my mind shut off
Why couldn’t I relax
Hoping tonight
Won’t be a repeat
Like the last....
