No matter how hard I try

there's always nights of

which can never be said

is slept without having

raised from a most

comfortable bed

searching for something

to help me sleep

when mother said

“it’s all in your head!”

so I tried just that

even went to

the library and read and read

cus a good book will do that

help me relax

so there every day

I’d find a corner and sat

going through

stories of castles and queens

of lost children and giants

even scary dreams

now I know what to do

when I can’t find my sleep

I’ll get a good book

and have a nice seat
