Is Anyone There?

When sleep eludes me

And I'm up late

I dream and write

On my electric slate.

My fingers slide

Over keys so fast

Writing thoughts

Of an endless task.

What will they read?

What should I say?

Will they come back?

Will they stay away?

Is this title good?

Is the print too loud?

Will they boo and hiss?

Will they write, Oh Wow?

Is this too long?

Is my poem complete?

Should I add more?

Or just hit delete?

pretty good poem . I love the rhyming! Rymezone.com is a good site for looking up rhymes and i like posting my poems on Poems-And-Quotes.com. I'm up too.. :/ I cannot sleep. My fiance is sleeping and I don't want to toss/turn and wake him up. He has to get up right before noon to go to work... hehe! And.. I'm pregnant, which isn't good!!! I need my sleep. I might just sleep on the couch though. Good poem.. I rated it a 10~!

Thanks Michelle, my husband is asleep and I tend to sit up in the living room. Some nights you just can't sleep. Thanks for the helpful hints. Good luck with the pregnancy!
