Turning Night Into Day

Sleep at 3pm

No problem

But at 3am

Not a chance

What the fuck

Is wrong

With me

That sleep

At night

Just won’t

Advance

The Insomniac’s Paradox

Why should I bother
Going to bed
When there’s nothing
To wake up for

Why should I bother
Waking up
When I enjoy sleeping
So much more

Skulking

With skin

As tough as leather

And a heart

That’s lined with lead

I wander out

Into the night

To find something else instead

That’s A Promise

If we are out

In the dead of night

And by chance

Our eyes should meet

What happens next

Will not be short

And it certainly

Won’t be sweet

#24 The Writer

Full of bleeding heart

That’s me

Slowly dying

For all to see

Hoping for words

To set the world alight

As I scribble away

In the dead of night

The Dead Of Night

The
dark
nights
are
drawing
in

And
there’s
some
comfort
in that

For
when
I finally
slink
away

They
won’t
know
I’m not
coming
back

The Dream Catcher

Bad thoughts creep

As I’m without sleep

For yet another night

Fears won’t keep

Whilst I lie and weep

Losing the will to fight

Success

Live, laugh, love
Comes the wisdom from above

Stop, sob, spite
Is what gets me through the night
