Sleep Deprived



hazel, glazed...
dazzled eyes..
cushioned in pink,
averse to light.
addicted to blink,
after every night.
lined in black,
tear trails stand.. within,
un-wet cheeks.

unwanted thoughts,
unbidden, unsought!
breeching feeble fences,
creeping therein.
chaotic n clever
battles in sleep,
attacking in inches.
Minds.., they steal.
enraging thoughts,
in weird dreams.

restless hearts,
leave all distraught
no one in control.
yes, I am "sleep deprived"
barely able.... rarely alive.
Incomplete!
Un-Whole!

First impression was an awesome pic-set, then it was a ramble.

But when i reached the last striphe, i smiles in realisation of a sleep induced outburst.

What had helped was that i was too distracted by the pics to read the title before, infact i would like you to change the title to something else and let the realisation dawn only later.

Really liked it.
