Insomnia

There are worse things than having behaved foolishly in public.
There are worse things than these miniature betrayals,
Committed or endured or suspected;there are worse things
Than not being able to sleep for thinking about them.
It is five AM.All the worse things come stalking in
and stand icily about the bed looking worse and worse
and worse.

i want to crawl into a dark dark hole and hide ......preferably for the next century .
like always another writer has said what i wanted to ,before me!honestly ,sometimes i wonder if these people travel "forward" in time ,get inside my head and then steal my ideas!

ahh when i was young which was a long time ago i was very fascinated by time travel, i used to believe that they(ppl/aliens who do time travel) used to roam around invisible to us observe us, could not interfere with us and then would go back or go to the future to their own time and of course after stealing our ideas.
we are not alone.
