Sleep cannot be bought by riches
May be using pills, it may be had
But, real peace, it never fetches
Sleeplessness makes one damn mad
As due to that, happiness ditches
A sleep deprived soul feels bad
Wonder is this sleep in this World
Sender has got this in body's fold
Lender of holy sleep is God untold
In case sleep is missed by some one
Misery and worry will then surround
Peace cannot be by that someone won
His mind will soon turn very unsound
Journey to gloom will be surely begun
He will enter into the burial ground.

I relate to the destructiveness of the lack of sleep. I fought that devil for abut ten years. These days, with the aid of modern medicine and two glasses of cheap California burgundy, I sleep very well.

An older and much wiser person than I once told me that she had no problems sleeping because she lied so well. Anyways, enjoyed your poem.
