INSOMNIA
The night envelops me in its sweet darkness,
bringing forth promises of dreams fulfilled and blissful slumber,
and yet I stay awake in this dark room,
wishing my mind would just stop making up thoughts,
the ringing in my ears,
the noises in my head.
As I lay staring at ceiling, I imagined stars,
twinkling above my head.
Seeing the sandman come down from heaven,
watching me for a long while,
before letting me have a dose of his wonderful drug.
Daylight would soon be upon me, but I wouldn't mind.
My eyes closed as I smiled,
knowing all that wait was worth it,
even when everyday I woke up feeling lost,
because as I wait for sleep to come,
I imagine you beside me, just like before.
And when the magical dust is upon my eyelids,
the memory of you will be in my dreams.
