Author's Note: This little ditty was inspired by lack of sleep... duh. Basically the theme is losing sleep because of the oppoisite sex. It could go either way just Insomnia sounded like a girl's name. My dad plans on writing a song to these words. That makes me happy that they meet his approval. :D


NIGHTLY AS THE MOON RISES HIGH

*

Nightly as the moon rises high
She lights upon your lips
Kisses them leaving mystery
And grazes them with her phantom finger tips

She strokes at the eyelashes
To subconsciously bring tears
Eyes are just bejeweled goblets
In which to pour out all your fears

Her ice-cold lips purse
And blow on your mind
Warm breath of yester-love
Feelings thought left behind

Her siren laughter rises
Beyond the endless haze
Pangs of pain it brings
Only purpose to amaze

She dances on your body
A different place for a different effect
Needn’t search for your weakness
She is your only defect

Born of this world
Given life by your hysteria
Her name tortures you
Insomnia
