::Claim Me::
Sleep is trying to claim me
I fight to keep it off
Dreams are trying to take me
I write to stay awake
I fear the pain that awaits me
When my eyes close to the light
I fear the thought of waking
And looking at my life
An altered life I found in dreams
But the dreams turned to torment me
Wanting to sleep not to dream
Wanting to cry not to scream
Wanting someone to rescue me

That is really great. I like this. I’m going to come back and read more!
thank you so much!!
Im on the opposite end here. I desperately want to sleep more than an hour or two at a time. I sleep to dream, but sleep evades me. I believe both our plights are devestating and pure torture. In the end, we are both sleep deprived. I hope that you are able to vanquish the source of your nightmares and rest in a glorious dream.
Thank you my dear and yes it is truly torture when sleep evades you. I hope Mr. Sandman visits you soon
