insomnia

self-inflicted insomnia
is what i suffer from

in bed
with the lights on
at two in the morning

heavy eyelids
and a screaming head
for the pillow

but i can't

i lie awake listening to the nothings
or live vicariously through worn out pages
and broken spines

i spent last night with dragons,
but tonight i'm seeing the stars
