I STAY AWAKE: A battle with Insomnia

in #poem6 years ago (edited)

Insomnia can be very scary and confusing. I will post an entire post dedicated to my experiences with it. These are lines that summarize it. Thank you for your time, Steemians!!

sleepless nights
haunted dreams
a silhouette of fear
and molded screams
hopeless attempts
a fight within
try to sleep on clouds
but the night is thin
See the lights
seeping in
with it brings
the evil grin
hear those voices
leaping in
and i hope that they don't
leave again
but they do, leaving room
to fear and try to shed a tear
but submission is futile
why won't this world just disappear?
heart is beating slow
limbs are shaking numb
and inside is a question
what have I become?
