Description
Tossing, turningDreaming in bed.
I'm thinking this
In my head.
Insomnia,
It gets to me
So much that
I can never sleep.
Wishing myself
To a state
Of unconsciousness.
This is not a person
This is a pillow,
You're insane
And lonely.
I give up on it
And turn on the TV
To watch
Another
Damn
Infomercial.
Hopefully,
It's different
From the one
Last night,
But it isn't.
I sit and watch
As they cook
And slice
And chop
And vacuum
And exercise.
It's 7:00,
I yawn.
I toss,
I turn.
I use the secret special
Calorie burn.
I chop and serve.
It's a saving grace
For me to close my eyes
And the sleep timer's on
For 15 more minutes.

Well?.....First-off, I had to laugh because of the
clever way you wrote this piece! I wish I could give
you some wonderful words on what to do! I was like you
when I was 14 to 19. It's different for everyone! I
suppose you feel like crap the next day when you need
to get-up for work or school? Seems like you have a
boundless amount of energy. I wish I had that NOW!
But not getting needed sleep can catch-up with you and
screw-with your health! What helped me, was to get
dressed for school and sit in a "cumpy" chair, in the
dark, and I would finally drift-off....Of course I
Slept in my cloths allot, but I Did get some sleep!
