To Sleep When Sleep Has Neglected Me
Like a shadow you stalk me,
then you neglect me
before the rising sun
rose for me.
Now I lie alone
as I post on my phone,
writing this poem.
Sleep, you forgot about me,
what happened to our relationship?
Why do you leave me?
All I want is a restful mind,
instead I have a restless mind.
Oh sleep please come find me
its past my bedtime.
