Hi, I'm Beverley Joy of Simply Story Poetry. I wrote this poem in 2019, during a time when I was suffering from acute lack of sleep, whilst working full time and studying. My daughter encouraged me to read 'The Effortless Sleep Method' by Sasha Stephens which I found very helpful. I also talked to my doctor, changed my diet to reduce stomach acid and increased me fitness level which all helped to reduce my sleeping problem. This poem speaks of the loss of sleep as to the loss of a lover. I love it when I find images by talented photographers to match the theme of my poems. For this poem I found several beautiful photographs which I have included in the daily posts of verses from this poem. Each week, I post individual verses from the most recently published poem. You can read my poems and verses at Simply Story Poetry on Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, LinkedIn and website.
