Restless I lie with a twitching eye
In a darkened room devoid of light
This perpetual phase
Traps me for days
Eternally awake in a never-ending night
Shadows on the ceiling fabricate faces
Glimpsing dreams that my pillow erases
Outside the window, shadows reflected
I stare at them senseless,
Slumber rejected
Nocturnal visions have ceased to exist
Sleep has been dismissed
Circadian rhythms drumming off beat
No dream. No sleep.
Wake up. Repeat.
