Sleep-less

I found this uncompleted on my laptop- and I’ve been suffering from insomnia lately so hey, thought I’d finish it:

 

Sleep-less nights leading to                         sleep-filled days

Caffeinated is the flavour

Cups, cans and pills are the vessels

Craved are the facilitators of awakening

 

Short days leading to                                      long nights

The rooms filled with shadows

Time lapses and slows

The wait for the drift of consciousness

 

Sleep is not found here

Sleep     finds      you
