Insomniac

In the middle of the night
There appears the dark visage
Of your hair hiding your face
Of a beauty I can’t express

As the time continues ticking
I can’t get it off my mind
The molten surfaces of time
Take your shape within my brain

I feel scared, terrified, petrified
Having felt like this before
I know of what is to come
Every step now takes a toll

First my eyes no more will close
And even if they do
I have frozen, photo memories
Where all I see is you

Then, my hand starts to shake
And so do my insides
They melt into nothingness
Just because the thought of you

And then last, but worst of all
My heart will turn to stone
Cold and stale because of fear
Of the fear that you impose

I’m insomniac, I can’t sleep
Because you are in my brain
And I cannot take you out
Even if I wished it so.
