[hometext] => ~~ WANTED: a restful night of sleep ~~ When the sleeplessness starts my whole focus becomes blurry, all I crave is a comfy bed and quiet.
[bodytext] => Peaceful slumber escapes me, Wracked with thoughts of death, The mind seeks a place to rest, Dreams offer no respite. Sleep I crave, yet I flee, Between each heart beat and breath, I sense I ride upon the wave’s crest, Seeing gentle sleep just in sight. Pacing, sighing as the hours pass, Driven by compulsion to reflect, Emotionless and weary, Life seems such a burdensome gift The mirror becomes more than a looking glass, The inner turmoil is suspect, Solutions come but can’t be hurried, Sleep will come when eyelids no longer lift.
