Sleep Deprivation II

Share a bed with you,

Warmly,

Feels good to be snug again,

Happily.

 

Drift off to sleep,

Post orgasmic haze,

Dream's are coming,

Bit of a maze,

 

Fighting and fighting,

Through and through,

This dream is pretty messed up,

Still part of you.

 

Shock and horror,

How can this be?,

I went to sleep peacefully,

Not in your head, crazily.

 

Try and escape,

This deep, dark mystery,

Try and escape,

This prison, inside of me. 

 

Awake to find,

You next to my head,

Only to find,

You fidgeting  in bed.

 

Dark outside,

Exhausted in here,

Please stop the movement,

It's not fair. 

 

Pet cat comes and joins me,

Purring wildly,

Daddy why don't you stroke me,

I need some TLC.

 

Oh crap, this is too much,

What am I to do,

Get up, have a drink,

Or turn over and ignore you. 

 

Getting very late now,

Silent outside,

Can't seem to nodd off,

Stormy inside

 

Stay over there will you,

Your doing my F***in head in,

Hormones and emotions,

 My patience is wearing thin

 

As the night goes on,

Bitterness is fierce

Tired, wired and totally expired,

I'll end up in tears. 

 

Can't seem to nod off,

Can't seem to sleep,

Want to scream,

Want to close my eye lids.

 

Morning comes,

Awake with heavy eyelids,

Drag myself out of bed,

Feels like I'm totally amiss.
