Tossing and turning 😱

Tossing and turning 😱

Beyond the bleakest of those boundaries betwixt sleep deprivation

Lies a mixed up mind overthinking amidst an inventive imagination

Feeling a fraughtness of fed-up from sleeplessness frustration
 
Dam those wee small hours are cruelly caught up within yon devilish demon of disguised doomsday desperation..  
                               ~
Tossing 
              Then 
                        Turning
                                ~
Tormented amongst troubles
One’s weirdest, wackiest worrisome woebegottens manifest between burning bubbles
                          ~
                                              Pitifully                                                    
                               Prowling
               Corridors
                             ~
Inside those shadowy four walls
Scared from soul searching scary spirits
As one’s skin creepily crawls
  
Eyeing each and every minute second on that clock on the wall

Where that ticking of the time away stands at a staggered, slow drawl 

And you cannot wait a moment longer for the crack of dawn’s Cockerels crowing call...

Jill!! Are you having trouble sleeping!!? Lol
brilliant piece. I love the little intersection of words set out like steps and love the tongue twisting of words beginning with the same letters. It makes the feeling more eerie! Pxx

You've done well here Jill. The layout is perfect! That is some feat in itself!  The poem resonated with me. I know what it's like to wake up after a couple of hours and fail to fall back asleep because your mind is whirring like a busy whirly thing ⚘ x
