Sleep Won't Come

I really should be in bed.
Don't I realize how soon the early work hours will pull the sun up?
Pushing, pulling the darkness deep navys into pale shades of robins egg, like stretching taffy.

You tell me to sleep but we both know
When restlessness grabs hold of my chest, limbs jitter fidgety
You have watched me pace floors, so much to do

Of all the times to argue with me, of all the times
Surround me with your arms, not angry impatience.
Everything is overwhelming, I am so tired but there is so much.

How can I explain, sleepy minded, thoughts too difficult to sort
Take me to bed, undress me, tuck me in that corner of your arm
Make me listen to your heart song beat, make me sleep.
