insomnia
my phobia
it can strike whenever
but its favourite
without a doubt
is right before
a test, a bout of
wakefulness just hits me hard,
and i can't sleep, i only see
shadows on the ceiling
and the fan just spinning, spinning.
The sound of engines
passing through the night
watch other rooms turn out the lights
and blinking at you wondering,
what is it that's weighing on your mind,
the stars,
they seem to shine
"hello"
to me as I decline an invitation to their tea party
"I'm busy"
i explain but they
basking in their glowing grey
shrug and only turn away.
..."Ask me again another day?"
