Sleepless Night

Tossing and turning, restlessness causing my eyes not to shut.

sleep is calling out to me, I'm struggling to answer it.

The thoughts in my mind are racing and they don't know it's time to stop.

The hours go by slowly on that old ticking clock.

Right now I should be fast asleep and dreaming but I just can't seem to do it no matter how hard I try or how much time goes by, my eyes won't shut and sleep is eluding me.

The sleep that is calling my name isn't being answered cause' I'm tossing and turning in my bed... Restlessness has won tonight and sleep hasn't found me yet...

Here comes now the morning sun, telling me my time is up..

Trust me I've been there and done that. One suggestion for you my friend: In line three I would change "they don't it's time to stop" to read "they don't know it's time to stop"...a simple omission error. Your friend in words, Pete

[Dreamer]

Thanks Pete, That was what it was supposed to say

[OTownPete]

I hope I didn't insult you by offering editing suggesions.

[Dreamer]

no, not at all. I'm glad you did otherwise I may not have noticed it! It was written correctly I just typed it wrong. Thanks for pointing it out!

[OTownPete]

My pleasure...please read "A Hole Lot of Dreams" as a favor to me

[Dreamer]

sure, I will get to it.

Sometimes you need to know your why's and other times you need to accept your why not's. The mind has its own time system AND world. We seem to exist within its limitations.

Good morning and I hope the week goes well.
