Sleepless Nights- SOL #6

Sleepless Nights

can’t shut it off
the endless loop
the record skipping
the song on repeat
tossing and
turning
trying to find
that one comfortable spot
maybe then
I can sleep

watching the clock
counting the hours of
sleep I’ll get
if I can just
sleep now
the bags
under my eyes
reveal the truth

can I sleep tonight?
can I shut if off
long enough
to fully rest?
will the worry
cease to invade
my mind?
I hope so
I really, really
hope so
