Insomnia

Sometimes random thoughts
Flit right through my head.
Often when it happens
I'm lying there in bed
Trying to get to sleep.

It's very frustrating
When my mind is racing so
With all the crazy things
It doesn't matter if I know
That certainly aren't deep.

If I was contemplating
Something that was needing thought
It wouldn't bother me as much
If understanding was what I sought.
Instead it's just random stuff.

These things that keep me wide awake
Instead of getting sleep
Just aren't that important
That 'til morning they should keep
And I want to yell, "ENOUGH!"
