Talk to doctor: Difficulty sleeping is a very common condition. There are so many possibilities, it is not possible to provide you with any kind of specific answer online. You need to see your family physician or internist and get a thorough check up. It could be depression, drinking alcohol, caffeine, cigarettes, sleeping conditions, pain, and so on. Most sleeping problems can be successfully managed.

Several causes: It sounds like you have an underlying sleep disorder. The exact etiology would be difficult to guess without interviewing you further. I would recommend seeing a sleep specialist so the answer can be teased out as it could range from poor sleep hygiene to a more serious sleep disorder such as osa or insomnia etc.
