Broken Sleep...
That's a constant, that keeps
A contemptuous mental malady
Leavin' me pitifully awoken of sleep
A weakened mind, I find in reality
Oh why this burden keeps herdin'
'The Sheep' I weep, can't count
Days total dazed, lost, I'm amazed
A soul in turmoil, rest, an incessant foil
A weakened mind, I find in reality
Leavin' me pitifully awoken of sleep
A contemptuous mental malady
That's a constant, that keeps...
I need an end to mend this maze
before the Y, Broken Sleep spells CRAZE ...
*Pic. Credit, not mine...unknown
just saw it one day, n loved it n seemed perfect for this. *

PM!!! I had sleep issues when I worked the overnight shifts in combination with regular full time job but that was because I had to deprive myself of it...there is nothing worse then when you have the actual time afforded to sleep and yet circumstances don’t allow you too...I, like you and the others above me know this well...could it be because us poets never stop feeling and thinking??
