Insomnia

Lay in bed, awake again
Moonlight shinig on my face
Alarm clock numbers rising
Thinking thoughts that will not rest.
Turn right and left and back again
Fluff the pillows, sigh.
This vicious cycle will not end.
Because I still lie
Awake.
I'm tired, but my eyes won't close
The numbers, ticking higher
Red lights blur
My tired eyes focus
And I panic, because I know
I'll be exhausted tomorrow.
I'm so tired of being tired!
When will it end?
Because I'm still awake...
