An old piece I found while searching around my computer desk my
Can’t Breathe ~~~*~~~ Can't breathe Nasals arid as a desert wind The running ceiling fan Cools me not It dries My sleepless eyes. Too much Tossing and turning Unable to think, Senseless thoughts Occupying my mind Leaving no room For my fears Of the night. My stomach Is performing It's own concert Like children whimpering In their nightmares. Can't wait to see The eastern skies Fading to gray exposing the outlines Of the trees. I crave The oncoming scene Of the orange hues To paint the heavens Of the horizon east I'll know then Tomorrow is outside. By: William Bonilla D'Artagnan 12/15/2013

This poem really pulls that the emotions. Waiting for a difficult night to get over when the morning comes. Those nights can be rough. I hope you didn't have many.

I'm finding that it's getting harder and harder to be up to greet the first rays of the sun because it is at that time that I feel most comfortable and want to sleep for a few more…
