Late night poetry and rambling

It has been another long night
I thought if I stayed awake all day that just maybe
I could shut my eyelids
Close out the world and drwon in my own unconsciousness
At some point
The pacing inside my head has to end
Pleas make it stop

I sleep less, and when I do
I want to stay asleep
The days are so long and dry
Empty like the words
That the simple minds of theses walls
Speak
Sun rises, sets
Rain falls, stops
It's hot,
It's cold
Yet still I am a whirlwind of activity
I strain for some way to end this pain
Of awaking
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sleep tight! dear moon, even you get some shut eyes...hello mr. sun, are you herer to mock me again, to let me know that i have wasted my dreaming hours, roaming around the world of words inside my head. Are you here to laugh at me as I sit in front of the tube, countless mind deadening hours spent, watching and staring at nothingness. Are you here to remind me that yet another week is about to end and I have accomplished nothing? I have done nothing? I have seen nothing of value except maybe that show I saw at 3:--am..no that was not of value either...

Hello dear moon, how was your rest? did you enjoy the hours of your dreaming state and now you have woken with your million starry friends to remind me I am hopeless? Have you come to mock me and let me know how empty and alone the darkness of the night can make one feel? How scary it is to watch outside as creaturs of the night mix with spirits of the dark keep watch and dare me to come out! Should I now remain in doors? Maybe I want to be out when everyone else is in! Does this make me evil?

Good morning friend, do I scare you with my mindless banter, chatter, stupid remarks. Don't worry, I am only an insomniac, spilling words...these are only words...with power..but words all the same.

Don't mind me, I need to be heard, when the world is asleep, I need someone to listen to me, Wake Up! It's morning and the sun is coming up again...so I say goodnight!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well it is morning, I have to get my beauty sleep now, such is the mind of an insomniac!
