Sleepless
Lidless wonders at the ceiling
Stargazing off into space
Awake yet numb from lack of slumber
Legs wanting to run a race
How long can this human body
campaign to stay awake?
When my mind is but a muddle
and it is sleep I wish to partake
Yet each night the same scenario
Keeps playing it's refrain
As I lie there restless....sleepless
and all my worries are to blame
