Sleepless Poem by Anisa Tara

Sleepless

Rating: 5.0


I write in the dark
After I've turned out the light
When the fan blades are wild
And the crickets come to life

I have to decide

Which poems I must let slide
If I stay up to write
I might never rest at night
For they flock to me like flies
Oblivious to my sleepless plight
Never when the time is right
But always so I can't sleep tight
