Insomnia

I wrote before of my sleep challenges. I don’t know how I was able to sustain go health for so long, 20 years on such minimal sleep. I might have been affected for years by this absence but I wasn’t aware of the debilitation I had been subjecting myself to.

My peers and family, who knew, wonder how it was possible. Some people in their astonishment were quietly acknowledging me, without every knowing it and I never thought it necessary to do anything about it

 

 

Insomnia

It’s

Not

Sleep

Only

Me

Nodding

I

Admit

 

 

It’s not so long ago that my body started to protest

Not so long ago, I was taking only, a 2 hours night’s rest

Sleep was brief and my days were long

Only through God’s mercy, did I get along

Me? I worked 15 years in management after 5 as a clerk

Nodding off at the wheel on the way from work

I am ill now and wish people would be more careful how they sleep

Admit when they realize, the bad sleeping habits they keep
