Turmoil

God I am so tired

The days seem drag on and on...

Sleepless nights plague my days

Trapping me seamlessly into a never ending Day

Sometimes I wonder if  am even asleep at all

I can't even remember the last time I slept so soundly

Can't even blame nightmares as even those demons seemed to have desert me

Sleeping in my own bed I still feel like a stranger

Surrounded by the silky white sheets and comfy plushy pillows

It all seems so pure and soft compared to the person who lies in these white sheets

I'm trapped in it's kind embrace,

 Nothing but a prison really

Forced to lay here as the night passes on, trying to seek comfort in the darkness waiting for the whole world to be awake once again

Laying awake till the sun rises

A torment of another sleepless night

Listening to the others in the house rouse from a peaceful slumber

Moving about as if not to disturb those who still sleep so peacefully

I am jealous, envious and defeated

A slave to this insomnia that seems to have cursed me... chained me... Ensnare me...

Its Nothing but never ending moment....

Good distribution of insomnia. Nailed it

[Kari Rakitan]

I've only rarely had nights this difficult. I'd say this transported me into another person's shoes.

[Just Kim]

I found this quite intriguing, kinda emotional as well

[Words of Wisdumb]

Well done. Insomnia plagues so many people. I usually sleep well but I do know the feeling of lying in bed wide awake waiting for morning to arrive.
