    I cannot sleep...No pleasant Dreams

     I cannot not sleep no pleasant Dreams,
    only to Dream of wonderful things.
    I cannot sleep nor close my eyes,
    No Dreams of sheeps or butterflies.

    I lay in bed yet toss and Turn
    Not a wink of sleep do I Earn
    only Restlessness and a good nights sleep
    so far away for which it seems,
    I Yearn for and  NOT yet  have seen.

    I close my eyes for which I beg,
    restful sleep and pleasant dreams.
    For this is impossible as it seems.
    No Sleep for ME ?... What do you mean?

    I close my eyes and try once more,
    for a restful night and pleasant Dreams,
    of sheeps and butterflies, and pleasant things
    For this feeling of restlessness will not pass it seems.
    If only I could close my eyes,  Dreams await me,
    and lullabies, a restful night can be mine.
    Just a few Hours of sleep would be FINE !!

    sleep depravity can drive us mad (at least that's what I've read), and I haven't slept well in a number of years :D so if you want to keep your sanity badgebutterfly try Melatonin. p.s. thanks for the comments on "All a Twitter"

    I know how this feels - I work nights, and sometimes I just cant sleep. It feels so uncomfortable. I can relate.

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
