Insomnia.

[samanimz]

I am a student of the school of arts,
Both of war and of happiness.
Perhaps my greatest subject,
The dying art of restlessness.
Searching for the truth of things,
Deciphering lost messages.
My mind does rarely rest
Before it starts to race again.

This isn't too shabby - not sure about line 7 though. The phrase 'does rarely rest' is a little awkward.
