I can't sleep
I'm awake all the time.
So many thoughts
Racing in my mind.
I can't get words out
They clutter in my head.
Oh how I wish
I could go to bed.
I miss the silence
That sleep can bring
To put my mind at rest
And not think about a thing.
I'm so very tired
Weary and worn out
I wish, oh I wish,
These thoughts
Weren't floating about.
I just want to lie down
And have my mind grow still
To be rid of it all,
The anxieties to kill.
What did you think

a good piece Cris
well worded, set out cleanly, not too many flowery words either..
says it all... and keeps the subject matter real and tangible..
i like this one alot.. the poem that is, not the fact that you can't sleep
