Thoughts,
tangled,
entwined.

My head.
Clouded,
crowded.

Sleep,
alludes me.
Exhaustion,
controls me.

Nothing
works,
in my mind.

Can't make decisions.
Can't think straight.

Losing my touch.
Sharpness fading.

I need ONE thing.
Yet it refuses to come.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Night
tortures.

Sleepless,
tossing,
turning,
nights.

Dreams,
stay away,
dark surrounds.

Tired,
every morning,
all day.

Losing myself,
to restlessness,
to exhaustion.

All I need is sleep
All I need is You.
