Eyes Half Open

insomniac

I sit with eyes half open, staring at the world
As rain falls upon this place and soaks the ferns unfurled
To be awake at such a time and feel sleep's tender call
I long to let these lids upon my weary eyeballs fall
This day seems to stretch on forever and still there's more to come
Oh so tired I sit upon my chair and my mind is nearly numb
Still the rain falls upon this world and clouds encase the sky
It's cold and wet outside and inside i sit and sigh
I find myself so wide awake on such a drawn out night
Being so alert at such a time can give you quite a fright
I feel so tired and yet i dare not shut my drifting eyes
Between my mind and my weary eyes there seems to be no ties
I wish so much to rest my head and steal a moment's sleep
It feels so late to be awake and still i feel the minutes creep
