Can't sleep
Can't sleep
Frowning , so tired but in these thoughts
Drowning In memories , I can't pass the middle of this hour glass but the sands of time past through me .
Can't sleep
Having feelings of guilt from the stupid stuff I did to myself and the selfishness sells like discounted clothes with only slight defects .
Reflects burning and image in me , LCD screen left on over night settings too bright leaving the lines .
Can't sleep
I'm wide awake , for fuck sakes I got to be up in three hours , taking a shower , iron my shirt to dig another hole .

It’s good to see somebody exploring the pitfalls of insomnia a little. I think that this little piece was very eloquently written with a healthy dose of frustration that was explored within it. The repetition of ‘can’t sleep’ worked very well in driving this image home.
Thank you for sharing.
