Poem

Alright, I wrote this poem several weeks ago (4/16/02), and
I really kinda like it. I write lots of poetry, but most of
it sucks in my eyes, but I actually think this one may have
some potential, so I'm gonna post it. Hope you enjoy.

--------
Insomnia
--------
The lights are off.
I lie still,
Staring at the wall.
My skin is sticky,
The air heavy & warm.
My mind races,
Burdened with thought.
A single tear slides
Down my smooth cheek.
Fed up with thinking,
Too sober to sleep.
Why the unhappiness?
The aching, the pain?
Night wears on,
As the clock ticks.
Praying for sleep,
Yet dreading the dawn,
I remain still,
Staring at my wall...
