Vishal Dutia

Caffeine and stress, heavy eyelids and shapes,
Moon sinking, nightmares creeping, disease without escapes.

Running a triathlon without training, racing mind,
Waking nightmares, sleepless grind, a torture to find.

Pills and prayers, hoping for a moment’s rest,
Body folding, mind distressed, unable to be at its best.

Insomnia, an affliction with no easy cure,
A disease that leaves you feeling unsure.
