Insomnia

by Vincent DONNAHUE III - Cancer

Thelights of this town slowly faint.
Darkness- the deepest grave,
Takes me under siege.
I am still awake waiting for the dawn,
Years pass by, I stay alone,
Letting my insomnia grow.
I close my eyes
But I can't get asleep,
Tortured by the dark thoughts,
In my head I hear the desperate weeps.
My memorys come back,
No metter how hard I try to forget. 
Another day of my life takes me into the past.
I am scared and upset
Because I know how long this will last.
I am living my nightmares awake,
God I am too tired,
Death is the only escape.
