Eyes Closed

Eyes Closed

A Poem by Xye Nelson

Close my eyes
I haven't slept in five days
The pitter patter of news room edited information provokes insomnia 
Keeps me hooked

Cut me off
I haven't slept in five days
My cup keeps refilling with ingenuine dark roast Columbian coffee
And endless cigarette between my cold fingers
Provoking insomnia
Keeping me hooked

Help me out
I haven't slept in five days 
My motivation is at zero 
This never ending hunger eating away at my self esteem

Kill me please
I haven't slept in five days
I'll sleep 
When I'm dead.
