Array ( [sid] => 107309 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => cant sleep [time] => 2005-10-08 02:22:10 [hometext] => .....its such a weird feeling..... [bodytext] => eyes are heavy

burnning and red

playing with emotions

inside my head

take the invisable tape of my eyelids

i feel that they need to shut

but they dont

a horible feeling is inside my gut

rolling around

trying to sleep

but all that i do

is get tangled in the sheet

hands shaking

sweat dripping from every poor

i stand up out of bed and try to reach for the door

being weak my hand trembals and falls to my side

i lay back in my bed

for another insomniatic ride

laying in a pool of shadows

eyes dry from looking for sleep

they close for a second

but my insomnia is to deep
