INSOMNIA

There I lay like a body in the grave,
Sadness maketh my body a hollow vessel,
Tribulations cometh upon me like a deadly wave.


To the darkness of the night becameth I a slave,
With this force did I engage in a wrestle,
There I lay like a body in the grave.


But by mine own hands did I this path pave,
In time endless down this tunnel did I travel,
Tribulations cometh upon me like a deadly wave.


In this war must I be brave,
But my mind clouded by confusion becometh a puzzle,
There I lay like a body in the grave.


My own soul do I fight to save,
For of my soul this demon maketh its temple,
Tribulations cometh upon me like a deadly wave.


Sleep for months do I crave,
But entrapped am I in this wall of circle.
There I lay like a body in the grave
Tribulations cometh upon me like a deadly wave
