insomnia
9 o'clock PM
lay down.
close your eyes.
9:30
realize sleep isnt coming.
switch on the TV.
10 o'clock
climb into the shower.
close the curtain.
10:30
dry yourself off.
walk to your room.
11 o'clock
begin that new book.
shed a few tears.
11:30
slide the book over.
pace back and forth.
12 o'clock
lay back down.
unlock your phone.
1 o'clock
turn your phone off.
lay in silence.
2 o'clock
remember your past.
cry.
3 o'clock
dry your tears.
open the bedside drawer.
3:30
wipe away the blood.
4 o'clock
close your eyes.
4:30
fall asleep.
5 o'clock
your alarm is going off.
time to get ready.
