Insomnia

As I lay here
And watch it grow
One thirty
Two fifteen
Now, three twenty

Restless-
My mind fights with time
A losing battle
For all mankind

The anxiety grows
As fast as the numbers
As I crave rest
The deep deep sleep
Of nothingness
Weightlessness

The snow globe night light
Confusing me
-Mostly my mind
The glitter glistens
As if the sun beaming in

My thoughts race-
-But only each other
No sprinter could win
A clocks delight
To Tick Tock
