Requiem of Insomnia

Standing with sword of shadow and light, 
invisible warriors ready to fight 
the evils of inaction and lethargy this night 
that productive thought may proceed.  

Mind weary and worn must forge ahead,  
heedless of calls to rest and bed 
lest the beasts of failure and regret be fed 
the manna of want and need.  

Then softly, a song from deep within  
of comfort, calm and peace does begin 
to sooth the heart and salve the sin 
of drive and push so deep.  

Take time to hear, to hum along 
with eye closed and body swaying; this is not wrong.  
Your heart has need of this restful song. 
So sing...and dream...sleep.
