597. Sleep Does Not Help My Soul Poem by Jaden Knight

597. Sleep Does Not Help My Soul



So they keep telling me to go to sleep
that I would feel better when I wake up
as if it would answer all my problems
but I cannot find the rest I need

When I rise it's the same feeling
not matter how many hours I get
I could possibly sleep all day and feel the same
my body is not the only obstacle

Sure crashing may help a body drained of energy
but it does nothing for a tired soul
while I physically try to rest it cannot
maybe a bed is not what I require

Have not yet a clue how to fix this
as each sunrise brings no answer
I guess I must keep trying
as the reaper can't be the only solution
