Letter to the INSOMNIAC

Why do you cry?
Tell me, why is it hard for you to fall asleep at night?
What memory repeats itself in your mind?
Over and over, clip after clip, No pauses just replays
Do you let your thoughts wander
To those darkened places in your heart you never visit in daylight?
Cleaning away the cobwebs does your heart skip a beat ?
Does the memories of all lost come rushing back to you?
Why do you twist and turn and thrash and weep
Why do you clutch your knees at 3Am,why  don't you sleep ?
I wonder what it would be for me to walk in your shoes
To put on your skin and live through your dreams
To be chased by your monsters and haunted by your ghosts
To tame your demons and ride your storms
To own your pain and bring you peace
Do you even know what that means?
A state where your mind is at ease
And the voices are mute
Then you can rest your head and drift
And maybe then I can finally breathe
