What is Sleep?
Sleep is peace
Sleep is that place you go to be
Free
Sleep is unattainable
At least for some people
What is sleep?
I don't know, so don't ask me
Sleep is the epitome
Of everything there is
To be
Sleep to me
Is a goal
It's a
State of mind
That I can never reach
Insomnia
According to Web MD
It's when you have trouble sleeping
At least three times a week
You're lucky
If you just have it
However, despite what the Dr. Internet
says
You can be it
Insomnia
For those of us who only sleep
Maybe
Two nights a week
It's tiring,
Exhausting,
It
Complicates things
As in side effects
As in what they call fatigue or depression
or
Other various mental disorders
Not something annoying
As in curable
But something serious something
Permanent
Like Schizophrenia
Because it can
I looked it up
On Wikipedia
In my everlasting
Sleep
I am still awake
Recently, insomnia has been affecting me very severely, even to the point where I did not sleep (aside from dozing off for five to ten minutes) for eight days straight. I have been plagued by nightmares, anxiety, and exhaustion because of this strange disorder. Insomnia also causes fluctuations in my appetite so that I go from starving to not hungry at all in minutes. At the end of a sleepless stretch, most of the time I pass out and sleep, without dreaming, for hours on end. Insomnia has become a huge problem for me in my personal and educational life; causing me to fall asleep in class constantly and not being able to do anything with my friends because I am just too tired all of the time.
