Current mood: contemplative
I lay down exhausted,
But sleep will not come.

I get up,
Wash my face,
Put on new night clothes.
But sleep,
Sleep will not come.

I cease my thoughts,
Lie blank, staring.
But sleep,
Sleep will not come.

I recite these lines,
An unorthodox prayer.
My eye lids grow heavy,
I try to remember these lines
For the morning.
Creativity comes,
In this void of time.
When all I wish is
To remember until morning.
And sleep,
Sleep comes,
At a most inappropriate time.
