Let.... me... sleep...
Please.
PLEASE! let me sleep!
You keep me awake with your toxic kisses
Wrapping yourself around me,
Soothing me in a false comfort,
My eyes are heavy,
My head is weary,
So please, PLEASE!
Let me sleep.
It was fun in the beginning,
You gave me more time in the night,
You keep me up,
So I could study,
You keep me up,
So I could keep in touch with myself,
My mind was free to wonder with this extra time,
Just to have you confirm,
That I'm who I say I am,
The nights were fine,
But my days became ****,
Not having the energy or patience for others,
Greeting my teeth in frustration,
As people wonder where I went,
I am right here!,
But Im really not...,
I'm trapped in my mind,
Which is screaming!,
Screaming at me,
To scrap any couple of minutes of shut eye that I can,
Looking for any break in my day,
To just get away,
Away from the noise...,
The people...,
My friends...,
Any energy I have is used just
To keep moving,
To keep standing,
To keep awake,
Throughout the day,
Any chair becomes a temperpedic mattress,
Finding comfort with ease,
In the most random places,
Which makes sleep easy,
But the cricks I'm my neck are not worth it,
Teachers lectures become slurred mumbles,
Like the adults in charley brown,
But much more melodic,
Just to be shaken out of my daze,
By the sound of back packs zipping,
And Chairs shuffling,
At the end of class,
Socializing is not revitalizing,
Being around my high energy friends,
Just fries my system,
It does not jump start it,
My friends wonder where their energetic friend went,
I just tell them I haven't been sleeping well...,
Excluding you and what you do to me,
**** IT! LET ME SLEEP!,
I no longer want to be a creature of the night!
You topsided my life schedule like a row boat in a tsunami!,
Only to feel your furry in the middle of the day,
Now I am afraid to see you at night,
Knowing you will ruin my life,
As if like clock work,
your there in my bed,
As soon as I'm comfortable and cozy,
Echoing my thoughts...,
Letting my mind travel...,
Traveling to no where!,
You take me on journeys that last a life time!,
Nudging me...,
Egging me on..,
To go on night drives,
My poem book is filled to the brim,
Full of all these ideas you give me,
While my tank is on empty...,
But what is a full mind,
With a weak body?,
What would I be,
Without you?
I'd be free,
I'd be alive,
Free to run!,
Jump!,
Climb!,
Do whatever I wanted!,
Not be held down by your ball and chain...,
Actually hold a conversation with a cute girl,
Without giving up,
Or not even attempting,
Because of you and my lack of energy,
The sun,
Will once again feel,
Like rays of love and warmth,
Rather than a monster constantly,
Trying to sizzle my eyes to a crisp,
Have time and energy to go on a hike with friends,
Instead of fearing I'll pass out,
And fall off the top of mount baldy,
I don't know...,
Maybe view coffee as... just a drink,
Rather than a gift from god,
Sent to help me survive another day In hell!,
I wish these where exaggerations...,
But they are far from it,
Sleep is important to me,
Sigh I just think we should go our separate ways,
We are just no good for each other...,
I got my life to live,
Sleep to catch up on,
So please insomnia.....let me sleep.
