Another sleepless night
Tossing and turning over and over again
I beg
Please let me sleep
My eyes white open
Tired but not sleepy
I beg
Please let me sleep
But no one hears me
A pitch black room and a silence that could swallow me whole
Yet I lay awake once again
All of want is sleep
To dream sweet dreams that take me away from the boredom that is called life
But my mind is afraid
Afraid of the night
Thinking 1 million thoughts at once
My mind makes the silence loud
Even if I screamed
Wanting it to stop, to be quiet and give me peace
My mind would not listen to me
It would keep talking, worrying, telling me lies and what ifs
So I lay awake until the sun peeks through the curtains, the birds start singing and the night abandoned these four walls
My mind goes quiet...
Now I can sleep,
Finally
Sleepless night
