How could I make this better?

Just any pointers or comments you have. Please? I’d really appreciate the honesty. (:

Insomnia

At night I lay awake, tossing and turning. No one really understands. But, deep down inside I’m burning. Too tired to sleep. Too awake to care. It’s an every night thing. My body is starting to ware. Hiding this pain is an easy thing to do. I’m used to hiding my feelings of you. You don’t even know, nor do you care. I tried telling you once. It was on a dare. Stumbling to your presence I went. Here is my turn. My time to vent. My mouth trembled with all this regret. I couldn’t do it. I was too upset. One look from your eyes and I knew it wouldn’t matter. These dreams of me and you, shattered. I go home. Go to my bed. Try to get rid of these thoughts in my head. My body is starting to ware. It’s an every night thing. Too tired to sleep. Too awake to care. Deep down inside I’m burning. No one really understands. But, at night I lay awake, tossing and turning.
