I Am Sleepless Poem by Mehta Hasmukh Amathaal

I Am Sleepless

Rating: 5.0


I have sleepless nights
I think a lot but nothing seems right
Dark clouds appear in the sky
I wonder why I feel shy

I am terrified by clouds
That creates sound which I find loud
Loneliness adds to my woes
I always feel jittery and on my toes

When rain drops come drumming on my roof
I rush towards the window to see this living proof
Tears just role down my cheeks due to our separation
many thoughts surface raising questions

Sleep has disappeared or gone miles away
as you have chosen a different way
I hear the rain drops as if thunderous noise
I miss you dearly and the numerous promises

This compels my heat to fill with sadness
Tears rush down my gloomy face
They role down my face in total defiance
I loose faith in my controlling reliance

I wish you have some memory
That will cause you some worry
You may have few words to say like sorry
But in no way is sad feeling nice to carry

A Great Poem In Many Respects-A Nice Poem If i may make a suggestion-a different word choice could change or amplify the mood of this poem. Like replacing Frightened with terrified or numb with fear :)

I have read the three poems that you asked me to and find them very deep and personal. I am sleepless I wasn`t sure whether to see it as a partner having left or having died. But either way a thought provoking poem. I think you must be the most prolific poet I have come across! Keep up the good work and Best Wishes

This is such a sad story but true for many. When one is in deep misery sleep is almost impossible. May your dreams come back soon :)
