Sleepless
Artwork courtesy of www.art.com
Tired, bulging eyes kept opened by distracting thoughts
Tired, wandering mind kept skipping in ropes of fears
Unpeaceful.
Sins of today play incessantly like an old movie,
Colorless, soundless, and jumping from scene to scene,
Without a pattern.
The body's aching, the heart beating abnormally,
Ears pierced with an echo of warnings coming from within,
The end is near.
Mind if you open the door, Lord, silently says I,
perhaps a prayer would appease my tormented thoughts, and finally
in comes surrender.
Sometimes, in this vast nothingness, sprout a spring
of good memories, of a better tomorrow, of a different you -- and then
sleep of death beckons.
When sleep wouldn't come, here's what I come up with.
Kapag antok po pala kayo, nakakasulat kayo ng magandang poetry.
Gustung-gusto ko ang mga naiisip niyo kasi very optimistic! How I wish ganyan din ako. o",)
sabi nga ni Lord cast your burden upon me and I will give you rest.
wag magkape ng makatulog!!!
hahaha...
pero totoo... once di k makatulog, talk to Him. hindi ka naman susuntukin ni bro sakaling tulugan mo sya habang naguusap kayo eh...
next time, love poetry naman! dare?!
Maybe your body act in that manner
Because you ate a heavy meal for dinner
It's either that or rather than
You caught this contagious month of Ramadan
inhale exhale! inhale exhale! it works for me whenever I have those sleepless nights.
hala pards, over work ka..masyado kalang napagod kaya antok to the max ka....he he he
p.s.
abay di lang pala pang blog ini, pang national poetry ang dating..:)
Naks! Ang ganda ng effect ng pagiging sleepless. =)

wow nanan humahanga na naman ako sau kuya nebz ganyan ka pala pag di makatulog mas lalong nabubuhay ang iyong diwa.
cant sleep take MELATONIN one tab half an hour before bed or take the VALERIAN herb capsule....all natural remedy for sleep disorder...
I always tell my children kapag di sila makatulog, PRAY PRAY PRAY...
I ask them na kapag di makatulog, while in bed try to talk in silence with the Lord with eyes closed... and Jesus will be caress their tired soul, and in no time they'll fell asleep.
Mahusay ka palang gumawa ng poem kapag inaantok ka... hahaha (lolz).
God bless.
Mahusay ka Nebz, mahusay sa lahat ng bagay, mapatula man o mapa ordinaryong kwento..mahusay ka gising man o inaantok..
I love your post!
Nebz, look at what insomnia caused you to do?
You may have spent a sleepless night tossing and turning yet you created a poem depicting the internal agony of a person faced with too many thoughts and un'blogged' issues.
In love ka lang Nebz!
Salamat po sa inyong lahat. Pero tama po si NJ! In love po ako! Haha.
And how, may I ask NJ, did you know? Nabasa mo?
