It isn't fun to be an insomniac.
I never knew this until I couldn't sleep.
You should try going a night by staying awake.
Easy, right?
Now, do that almost every night of your life.
Tired, right?
Yeah, it isn't fun to almost never sleep at night.
I don't care if you think I didn't sleep on purpose.
That has only happened a few times.
I know better than to stay up on purpose.
I know that sleeping is easy for you.
But have you ever thought about me?
No, I didn't think so, and now you do?
I doubt you will ever understand how hard this is.
I never knew this until I couldn't sleep.
You should try going a night by staying awake.
Easy, right?
Now, do that almost every night of your life.
Tired, right?
Yeah, it isn't fun to almost never sleep at night.
I don't care if you think I didn't sleep on purpose.
That has only happened a few times.
I know better than to stay up on purpose.
I know that sleeping is easy for you.
But have you ever thought about me?
No, I didn't think so, and now you do?
I doubt you will ever understand how hard this is.

- Comment from author about the poem: To me, it's about basically how hard it is for an insomniac to sleep at night... Also, how no one can ever seem to understand how hard it is on an insomniac. It never matters to another person how little the other person sleeps, they will never understand how difficult it is until they experience insomnia for themselves.
