Insomnia

Dark and gloomy night

Clouds veiling the sky

Moon playing hide and seek

Stifling atmosphere

Staring into perpetuity

With sleepless eyes

Wished I could break free

Into freedom

From the worldly clutches

I wished I could sleep

Darkness terrifying me

My anguish profound

With petrified thoughts

I was awaiting the first light

Time fractioned

The night was engulfing me

My thoughts stirring me up

I closed my eyes with a hope to sleep

Sleep would not come to my eyes

I was scared of a nightmare

I wished I could sleep.
