Insomnia

Tossing, turning,

lying awake,

the clock marches on

but no sleep.

Insomnia

1 am, 2 am, 3 am,

but not a wink

no rest or relief

no sleep

Insomnia

To hot under covers,

chilled without them

tossing and turning,

no relief, no sleep.

Insomnia

Mind racing with thoughts

hounded by the next day's to-do lists,

worry and rumination

frantic mind,

just want to sleep.
