Insomnia is a thief that steals my sleep The hours and minutes tick by, an agonizing reminder that sleep won't come Like the ouroboros, my quest for sleep consumes me Insomnia traps my mind in a restless cage The moon never sets in my mind, an eternal sunny day mocking me Like the ouroboros, my struggle for sleep loops back on itself Insomnia places me in a dark maze without escape The hours I spend awake feel like an eternal road with no start or end Like the ouroboros, we both devour ourselves endlessly in our despair Insomnia keeps my mind turning over and over, and I never settle into sleep
I haven't been diagnosed with insomnia, but with my sleepless nights I've started to think I might have it
