I am waiting for the morning
so that I can sleep
the night has not been kind
nor is it comforting
the darkness plays tricks on my eyes
but it often get worse when I close them
while the night is busy weaving its lies
I'm doing my best not to give in
I am not crazy
but my sanity is troubled in the evening
my thoughts get hazy
and the shadows can be very deceiving
sometimes I cant keep control of my indecision
and I completely lose my resolve
I feel locked in a psychological prison
never knowing just how far I'll fall
may the morning come quickly
and my mind be at rest before too long
take me ever so swiftly
for I have been waiting all night for the dawn
Author notes
It is so hard for me to sleep at night, or at all (for verious reasons), sleep 6 hours up for 25. erg! haha
