Insomniac

I'm dead

My bones rusted long ago

I'm not ashamed of what I've done

Just who I am 

I've become a nightmare

Screaming in my sleep 

Doesn't anyone hear me anymore? 

Am I so insignificant?

or am I just alone? 

◄ harsh reality

Deep. ►

To question our intrinsic value is to be fully alive and human.
Very strong and deeply significant.
Thank you for such a venerable poem.
