A Poem from the The Poet and His Thoughts Collection
last Night I Met Insomnia - Viewed 495 Times
David Devaney
Website
January 25, 2007
Last night I met Insomnia
Bout half past two or three
She kissed me with her passion
And kept my sleep from me
We’ve been now long time lovers
She comes to me each night
And counting sheep one thousand times
Does never end my plight
I’ve had myself examined
To seen what might be wrong
Some Doctors say depression
Is why I don’t belong
But me I think Insomnia
Is really just a witch
Who cast her spell so long ago
To day and night now switch
And ever since she came to me
My rest has gone away
And here I lie throughout the night
With many things to say
Perhaps some day I will discard
These feelings she has brought
Recapturing my innocence
Where sleep is often caught
T’is then I’ll rest the whole night through
No lover by my side
With sleep the new found mistress
In whom I will confide
