I cannot Fall asleep, Who can teach me To stop time? Please give me A sign The minutes are ticking So quickly But I still cannot Fall asleep,
I cannot sail away On a frigate of my fantasies, I cannot stay By the shores of my illusions, I can not extinguish Lanterns My thoughts are like Pedestrians Walking in darkness Without rules
Can you help me? My solo friend Will you sing me? A song To attract Morpheus ? Do not be afraid, Be an angel to me I will not dare To offend you, I'm quiet when I cannot fall asleep
Exactly at midnight a drummer begins Wound up. He jumps Down and up Hitting my sleepless brain
I cannot fall asleep. Here you are my sweet Ankou In white clothes I’ve stolen Your years And Left you only my tears And youth
I still cannot fall asleep...

QuietStormF thank you . I guess a lot of people have the same problem..sometimes its really terrbible to stay al night long without any sign of falling asleep
Hi Salamuna, Thank you for your comment. I have read all your posted poems. There is only one word that I can think of that links them …… ''Sadness'' However they are well constructed and I find myself wanting to comfort you. Am I mistaken to feel that? I look forward to your next posting. Have a good day.
Hi LuvRoma. Thanks for reading my poems. Yes you are right. the main word describing my poems is Sadness. But I'm getting slowly out of this. unfortunately all my poems are inspired by the emotions of sadness. At the moment when I am calm or happy, I am not able to write anything. That"s how it works. All the best for you. Im also following your poetry :-)
