INSOMNIA

As I wander through my home
I ponder during the night alone
Sleepless hours spent with dread
While hapless images fill my head
I picture others in their beds
Lovely dreams within their heads
I picture those a world away
happily going about their day
I sit in darkness watching stories
Upon the screen in all their glories
Munching snacks which I'll regret
When upon the scale next time I step
Lonely feeling through the night
Am I alone within this plight
Alone I watch the sun arise
Sleepless again it's no surprise
Always seeking
never sleeping
Insomnia has its grip on me.
