INSOMNIA

Its so fragile
I, hold on to it,
It snaps away,
Just fades away.

So intense,so
Captivating.
I am, mesmerised,
Trying to hold on to it.

And I close my eyes
Those tired eyes,
Blinded by hatred.
Finding, light in darkness.

So incomplete
But still, feels complete,
I want to sleep,hold on
To this dream.

Of a new tomorrow,
Not so cold,as
It is today.
Not unforgiving,
As it is today.

But sleep,evades me
Just slips by me.
Slips, through my fingers,
Like sands of time.

I take my pills
The insomniac that,
I am. Hoping to,
Dream like others.

Shades of black,
Demanding attention
These shades of black,
I, hold on to them.

And I, close my eyes
Watch you drift away,
watch you fade away,
Just like my dreams...
