Sleepless Night

Poem Commentary

I love to sleep, yet I never quite can.

Sleepless Night

A night without sleep
Is what I have had

Do you see the shakes,
The tears in me

A night without sleep
Is a night without me

I do hear the sound
Of the moon spirit
And it calls to us all
To sleep for the night
Yet I did not

The tears in my eyes
When i cry for the night
To have sleep like no other
For there is none for me

A turn all about
In a bed that is mine
Only to find
A sleepless night

A night without sleep
Is a day of exhaustion
That I do not like

I will not leave my bed
Until i am asleep
For I do need rest

Waiting and waiting
Turning and turning
Only to sleep for a minute

Once I do wake
From a night little sleep
My body is worse
Than it would without any
And I am tortured for the day

I like this poem the best =3 you seem a little too tired though

Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
