I Can’t Sleep – a poem

I can't sleep
So much has happened
Sometimes I'm confused
Don't know if I'm coming or going
Preoccupied
Distracted
Out of control
In the way I've acted
I can't sleep
Too much on my mind
Sick to my stomach
It's going to take time
Don't know what I want or where I'm going
I've been led around
Happy to be following
I can't sleep
Don't know what I'm doing
Don't feel anything yet everything
When I love him, it pulls me
I want to leave him before I need him
I desire many but only want one
How do I resist temptation when he could be right?
I can't sleep
I guess he's won
I won't do anything out of fear
I won't be all of me
He won't know
He won't see
What I'm capable of
