Bored out of my mind,
watching Forensic Files on the tube.
Trying to find some inspiration,
as insomnia takes over my mind.
I struggle for minutes in bed,
trying to drift off to sleep.
Hoping that somehow I can clear my mind,
and float away on eagle's wings.
I want to be able to touch the sky,
witness the beauty of the world.
From high above the earth,
how I long to be free.
My desk is filled with paperwork,
many deadlines that haunt my mind.
I try desperately to finish them but,
somehow I always fall behind.
I have an ice cold glass of water,
waiting for me near the chair.
I am not a smoker nor a drinker,
just regular prescriptions for me.
There is no porn in my computer,
nor any type of virus that I know of.
My girlfriend is fast asleep here,
lying next to me on the sofa.
Times are kind of stressful now,
as things are turning upside down.
So many problems that are arising,
leaving me frustrated with every passing day.
I am wearing a T-shirt and my boxers,
there are pictures all over my walls.
Family and friends together;
picnics, birthdays, and graduation.
I feel kind of fatigued from the day,
I had a great work out at the gym.
The neighborhood dogs are howling right now,
if only they would disappear just for tonight.
Now I lay me down to sleep,
I hope that you've learned something about me.
May your morning ahead be blue and bright,
as I say good night from my side of the world.
