Another sleeping poem called "Wanting Sleep"

Sleepless blues at for four in the mourn
Consuming a restless mind seeking bedroom bliss
Peacefully rocking to sounds of Maxwell
The jazz of neo soul moving through the shadows

Shall the forces of sleeplessness be subdued
And my tiredness submitted
To dreams of floating on cloud nine
And feet soaking in salty blue waters
Underneath a bed of white sands

Or opening the door to a voice saying
It could be you
And a million pound cheque in the post

Instead I find myself rhyming to the soft finger steps of keyboard pavements
As I update my status on a friend of the night known as facebook
Then I sigh
