Not Sleeping Again Poem by Umbre MoonOkami

Not Sleeping Again



Not sleeping again,
Afraid of everything suffocating me,
Afraid of drowning inside my pillow,
Never waking from a dream,
Never waking to see another,
Never sleeping because of too much pain,
Falling asleep inside the class,
Never learning to fast asleep,
Always afraid of never seeing you,
Too much pain coursing through every cell inside me,
I try to sleep but the pain is scratching inside me,
You leaving me to die,
It hurts to know you don't care,
I thought somewhere deep inside you do care,
But it seems I must be drowning,
Not sleeping, taking a shower of clod deceptive water,
To keep me awake,
Drowning in the water of no return,
‘Don't sleep' I whisper to myself,
Too tired to care,
So I guess,
I will Die, Because I am not sleeping again! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
