the trouble with sleeping

why do you i need to bother trying so hard to fall asleep
when in a minute or two i know sleep will come eventually
yet i lie in bed and still wide awake
sensing sounds from the noise that i make
"relax" i said to myself a couple of times
counting sheep that jumps over you a thousand times
and if i start reminiscing in vain
o god i think i might fall from bed again.
