Sleep escapes me.

Though I chase it

It eludes me at every turn.

Sleep is to me as

Frank was to the cop in Catch Me If You Can:

Somehow just a step ahead

In the direction I don't seem to be heading.

Sleep is to me as

Water is to a beached whale:

If I don't get some soon I'm in trouble.

Sleep escapes me.

Though I chase it

It eludes me at every turn.

Sleep is to me as

Jerry is to Tom:

A wild game of cat and mouse

In a world where the mouse always wins.

Sleep escapes me.

Though I chase it

It eludes me at every turn.
