#163-Sleepless

Some nights my mind feels agitated.

Thoughts dance,

Like flames in a roaring fire.

Tranquility plays hide and seek,

In dark corners I cannot see.

So I stay awake,

Surrender to time,

Wait for sleep,

Or daylight.

I envy lamps.

They just switch off.

Me,

I have to wait,

For the light to fade.
