Ditched By Sleep..Yet Again.

As someone who's a born night owl, I often find it difficult to get along the "normal" cycle of life and day. And this used make me drop dead to sleep for 19 hours of sleep (my record so far, so proud!) after couple of days. But now I've gone from that to 48hours (my record being 65hrs, just FYI) of no sleep and "normal" work days. I think I may be nearing the end of my quota of allotted sleep for this lifetime...hmmm! Anyway, so this random post is for the poem I came to write to kill the time while my sleep ditched me..yet again!

WITH MY DEMONS

With my demons
Daily I fight.
With my demons
In the light or at night.

With my demons
Everyday I wage war.
With my demons
On earth or amongst the stars.

With my demons
Each reality is (oh-so) real.
With my demons
Is being chaotic or not surreal.

With my demons
Those memories be so glared.
With my demons
Call it a daydream or a nightmare.

With my demons
The mind & heart have made friends.
With my demons,
The soul's thoughts to begin or never end.

With my demons
Now I sit and write.
With my demons,
To heal a li'l more or just pass yet another night.

For all my demons have decided to stay long,
I've learned to patiently wait & grow strong.

-Heli..
