INSOMNIA

it's 8:35, night time and my mind is rather pregnant with black and white.
bizarre cut up emotions queue up for their turn 
my eyes well with tears,
but ain't enough to drown my fears,
not enough  to redeem a soul in torment.


it's 9:12 and Ghosts appearing right before me,perhaps my mind is getting hazy.
I miss  the stars and the moon;
maybe tomorrow they wont stood me up.
I feel i'm dying as i see myself 
crumble as the night deepens...

it's 3am...
staying  awake is the only cure 
watching the Grim Reaper struts a pompous scene
to lure my soul to step unto the  forbidden, 
I stand firm,
not blinking an eye, nor falling asleep
let me stay awake Oh God, until my son wakes up.
