lay awake from dark till dawn
plump my pillow, toss and turn
those nights are finally gone
I lay here unprotected
without sleep I didn't dream
that's when you slip in
as quickly as my REMs
how can I get any rest?
is this some kind of test?
you and sleep are linked
you haunt every dream
gonna go back to sleepless nights
drink caffeine till it gets light
if that is the only way
I can keep these dreams at bay

Interesting, fun and a little scary!
Lovely poem, day dream all day your desires, and your nightmares will slip away!
