I Can'T Sleep

I can’t sleep Reality crashes into me like a heavy wave of misery and self-hate Street lights pass me by like little stars in the night begging me to stop before it’s too late I can’t stop crying and my demons won’t seize This pain is too much and I search for relief I try to resist the urge to cut my life short but in my head all I can think is “What are you even worth?” I’m trying to be brave and put a smile on my face and the more I think about it I realize, you are my saving grace. My shooting star that I wish I could hold, my fire that warms me whenever I’m cold I want to help pick up your broken heart You’re beautiful, an amazing work of art For once in my life I am happy and you are making me fall for you But I don’t think the feelings are the same and so I try not to I’m sorry if it hurts you but my days I struggle to keep I’m having a hard time staying alive and I can’t sleep
