Insomnia,
Once again we meet,
I've grown accustomed to your
Nightly ***** call,
A dangerous liaison in
Those early hours.
It's 5 o'clock in the morning
I'm tired worn withdrawn
The monotony of daily embargoes
Assaults on a mind.
So tainted with desire
Laying beside me, skin as pale
As ghost walkers of the night.
Unheard, betrayal forms
A multitude of symbolic reasoning
Classical mixtures of
The abstract mystical undertones
And tangible fears grounding selves
Burrowing deeper below the surface.
Māra is beside me, smiling
Oh how I wish I could
Get her to see
That I'm not seeking attention
I'm merely seeking redemption.
Her demonic shadow need not
Accompany me
Stealing hours of wakeful sleep
I'm no lover of hers anymore.
Insomnia,
I'm tired of this dangerous liaison,
I want freeing.

I only just found this! I'd typed it up on my phone when I couldn't sleep. And forgot! So here's another today :)
