First I lie on my back,
trying the right side and left side,
next on my stomach,
then right back were I started on my back.
Through the night I keep tossing and turning side to side,
seeming never to gain enough
comfort enabling myself to reach a
peaceful sleep.
This goes on for hours and hours.
Still wide awake my mind
continues to ponder.
I can't get a wink of sleep.
My mind
wanders through the night contemplating
what tomorrow will bring,
future plans,
and certain goals which I hope to achieve.
Mental anguish begins to take control.
In just a few hours
tomorrow will no longer be,
and today has nearly arrived.
Finally I drift into a deep
and serene sleep.
Moments later
the alarm buzzes louder and louder.
It's time to get up.
The alarm continues to buzz
for about 60 grueling seconds.
I reach for it,
grasping it for a moment,
then pushing the button.
Angered and disgusted I look at the clock it's 5 A.M.,
just
another sleepless night has passed by.
