[JONATHAN]

The still of this night ,
overwhelming .
The absence of daylight's chaotic chorus ,
torturing .
The darkness in this room ,
blinding .
The anguished cries of my inner being ,
deafening .

For insomnia has imprisoned me,
has been prodding , poking and taunting me .
This consciousness , this stark reality ,
yes ! insomnia has imprisoned me .

Where are my friends in the stillness of this night ,
or do I hav the privelege of a listening God ?
Deliver me into a another realm of fantasy ,
for insomnia has imprisoned me .

This insomnia is eating into me .
Creeping , crawling under my skin ,
slowly devouring my sanity ,
yes ! slow but sure , I know this insomnia is eating into me .

Cure me of my insomnia , show me the exit to reality .
Cure me of my insomnia , open up the gateway to fantasy .
Sleep come kiss my eyelids now , help me escape with my sanity .
Lay me down to rest now for this insomnia is eating into me .

[Jer4clarity]

Jonathan,

Troubles do waken the soul. I cannot but try to comprehend...yet your poetry lends me a hand in feeling your pain. My Fav:

Wish I could be a better friend!

It....just was a great way to talked about insomnia...
Makes me wanna kinda chuckle too....
to think of insomnia poking and prodding...but it's true! AHHH i don't know why i'm laughing...
but when something is good...i sometimes start to laugh. Like i started to laugh when reading the beginning of CS Lewis's Mere Christianity..
man. i have a weird sense of humor.
BUT IT MEANS GREAT JOB! *huggles*

I can feel it below mine as well, and I have NO problem sleeping. I really enjoyed it,
I can relate to it a little as i work nights and sometimes can't even allow my self to sleep when i'm off shift in the day. Thanks again
