Insomnia

Contributed by Contralogicus on Sunday, 9th March 2003 @ 09:00:00 PM in AEST
Topic: DreamsandWishes



Whatever helps you get some sleep,
Helps you put your mind at ease,
Yes, you've been thinking deep,
And you don't know whom to please.

You desperately want to be,
Gently floating in your bed,
Swimming in the subconscious sea,
But the night is halfway dead.

As the sun lovingly paints,
Its soft hues across the sky,
While the night-time quietly faints,
Sleeplessly you lie.

its an outside view of oneself... like a conversation with your soul... (does it listen contra...?

not as dark as i expected it to be... painted the scene with not the vivid shades of the day but neither the darker shades of the nights... its more like the shades of dusk... variation... balance... tranquility...

Great interpretation ap. Thanks for all the feedback.

It is, in a sense, a rivalry between my mind, body and, soul. For myself, the balance in it represents that one moment in time when all three stop their fighting and focus on the sunrise.

I have to admit i agree with tease_whizz comment, this is a very well written poem, which i'm afraid i can relate to only too well...
