I like your style. when i read this, i accent the colored weirds, and that gives the rythm a syncopated feeling that's really fun.

You create very beautiful poetry, I'm very impressed. I wish I could write poetry like you, however I was never good at it to begin with.
Either way, keep up the amazing job. xD

I stress out a lot, it's pretty much the epitome of my life, and sleep is my only escape, so I konk out pretty easily.
The alternate is losing a lot of my hair and weight unnaturally. ;A;

D: Oh, this is so true for me... except I have insomnia, not just stress XD and have had it since I was fourteen... I wish I was five again and it was nobody's business if I still randomly curled up on the carpet for a quick snooze.

I'm not sure if this poem exists for just artistic reasons or if there is any reality behind it, but apparently it's natural to wake up in the middle of the night for like an hour or so. That's what I read anyways. Before electricity people used this as smexy hour. The easiest way to fall back asleep is to not stress yourself out about it. That just makes it harder.
Also adults don't need as much sleep as children + time goes a lot slower for children. So there isn't much point comparing yourself now to then as your biological needs and mental perception where completely different.

Love it and especially how I can relate to it! The only time I wouldn't be able to sleep when I was little was the night before Christmas or any other exciting event.
It really sucks when I have to be up at 3am (sometimes 1am) to go to work. It takes a miracle to be able to doze off.

whats strange about me is that when i was a kid, i would stay up till midnight and when i went to sleep, it'll be quick (i also woke up early in the morn'), but now, its worse! i just sit there, thinking, not knowing what time it is, until i wake up and ask myself "when did i go to sleep?"

This is great, though I had a hard time sleeping when I was younger verses now. I can sleep like there's no tomorrow....though I wish tomorrow will never come ;n;
