Poem: Insomnia
I am a writer. My passion is poetry. I feel words connect people together and help us to understand the feelings we share.
Poem Summary
Insomnia is a poem about not being able to sleep. She used to sleep peacefully but now it's like dodging a tornado. Her thoughts constantly dart back and forth as she tosses and turns fighting sleep like a toddler.

Insomnia
The nighttime used to be her friend
comforting her soul as she slept peacefully
until the morning sunlight peered through the window
Now it’s like dodging a tornado
with her thoughts constantly darting
tossing and turning
with nightmares waging war.
Fighting sleep like a toddler
until the wee hours of the morning
when the song birds call.
I want to sleep but my brain won't stop talking to itself
