Sleepless And Tired At The Same Time Poem by David Hockaday

To fall asleep is such a fight.
I toss and turn at night.
So much on my mind.
Sleep right now is hard to find.
Right now just thinking.
Mind is in the mode of processing,
my negative thoughts which leads to me worrying,
but right now I should be sleeping.
I am sleepless, my brain is on fire.
I am mentally worn out and tired.

I want my mind to be free, but it's a slave to negative thoughts.
I will do whatever it takes to free my mind at all costs.
The negativity is my slave master,
As I think negative, my master tells me to think harder,
and when I obey him and begin to think harder,
my slave master smiles and says that's better.
So bad I want to be free.
I want my mind to head to the north and think positively,
So I can fall asleep,
and be at peace.
My pernicious mind and know one don't even know it.
My negative thinking is not a partime job that I can just quit.
It dwells on my brain.
It feels like my brain been crashed by a plane.
I am tired and sleepless, I want to fall asleep,
So I can live a comfortable life and be free.
