Sleepless in Lowell
Laying wide awake as my partner snores and is asleep. How difficult it is sometimes to sleep with a person who snores.
I am sure at some point in almost everyones life you have had to put up with someone who snores. Well my partner especially when he is over tired snores like no tomorrow. Ususally it doesnt bother me, I have learned somehow to over look the annoying sound coming from the person laying beside me. But then I have those nights where nothing can give me relief from this sound.
I know there are remidies out there for just such a situation. There are those tape things that go across the nose, nope they don't work, then there is rolling the one snoring onto their side, nope to no avil, open the persons mouth so they don't breath through their nose, and many more. I have tried them all, but till date I have not been able to find the right one.
The poem I wrote below is about one of those nights where I laid awake the entire night just waiting for morning to arrive so the horrible noise would disappear. In fact I wrote this poem in my head as I layed awake the entire night and when I woke this was what I wrote down.
As the evening has come to and end,
to bed we go to rest,
all cuddled arm and arm,
my head laid on your chest.
Our eyes they close so quickly,
as to dream land we are lured,
when suddenly I am awaken,
by the sound of your huge snore.
As awake I lay from your sound,
there you lay fast asleep.
As I toss and turn from your noise
I just cant seem to escape,
I wonder if I should go,
and get that big roll of gray tape.
As minutes turn to hours
and to meĀ it is quite clear,
No sleep for me is in the cards,
and that's for sure you hear,
Though I love you deeply,
as I stumble towards the door,
Could you just please wake up for once,
and stop that horridĀ snore.

Hi Linda. At last I have worked out how to add comments to your work. Upto now I have just rated. I love the poem because I have had the same trouble with my hubby for 35 years and eventually had to move into the spare room. I have not been on Bukisa before. Do they take poems? Well done Christine
Boy! Can I relate to this one. I sleep with a buzz saw and I am such a light sleeper, so I should say I lay awake next to a buzz saw. lol
Delightful poem,even though the contents was an annoying snore. Please send me an email on one of my posts to tell me how you put on a poem without making the 250 word minimum?thank you
Sorry, Linda, I pushed the rated button, but didn't work.
Hi Linda, I enjoy reading your work here, thanks. I pushed the "edit" button, but the article lost, what happened? I contacted Bukisa support 2 days ago, but they still haven't replied me. I found that the traffic for the old articles become very slow and even stop there. Do you have the similar problem? Maybe I'm just new here. I found that Triond has added two new features, the latest is the spellchecker. Do you think Triond will close the door for us, those who participate in boycotting them?
