Insomniac
I cannot sleep, my dear
You see, yesterday the sound
of waves crashing inside my
mind kept me up all night
I’ve been at war with my past,
and I failed to make peace with it
Now my bed is on fire and nothing
remains of my heart but the ashes;
I beg of you don’t ask me to stay
alive for another sleepless night
Lover, I’m weary
and I long to sleep
To the girl who kept asking me why I can’t sleep.
