I lay awake again.
My mind continues to run.
Thinking of what I know,
or think I know.
I want sleep the most of all.
I guess it is true,
that people always want
that which they cannot have.
Author notes
I hate it when people say "I'll sleep enough when I'm dead" because they don't know what years without restfull sleep are like

In our home we have been known as The House of Insomniacs... literally. I truly know what you speak of here and understand it well. Thank you for sharing and best wishes to you in all of your endeavors. Keep that pen handy and ever ready for use dear poet.
