I won’t let sleep take me Though she is warm and inviting Painless and carefree Offering release from thinking I can’t let myself sink Into the sea of the abstract absurd Even when teetering on the brink Eyes weakening as I type each word I feel her pull closer Now tightening her grip Over and over Feel consciousness slip I won’t let sleep take me. Not again.

Don’t take me
I won’t let sleep take me Though she is warm and inviting Painless and carefree Offering release from thinking I can’t let myself sink Into the sea of the abstract absurd Even when teetering on the brink Eyes weakening as I type each word I feel her pull closer Now tightening her grip Over and over Feel consciousness slip I won’t let sleep take me. Not again.
When I can’t sleep, madness/poetry take over.
