nightmare! But I am awake.
I stared at the walls
as they closed on me
Tried closing my eyes
Yet sleep farther away.
trying to reason
why it happens to me.
I feel tired at the end of the day
long to curl up and go to sleep
yet, I am denied
the luxury of blissful sleep.
The darkness I abhor
Uh! life is no sheet music
it changes its tune often
difficult to choose between breath or death
it's a war for me, like every other person
But then my hands are tied and I don't know how to fight.
4 Candles:
Difficult to resist as Sweet Sleep magically waves her gentle wand over you...
The soft cloudy cushions and bed beckons you,
Heavy with sleep your lids shuts her windows down,
What's keeping you back dear?
wow... beautiful lines :)
