I Can'T Sleep
I can't sleep
'Cause of my choice
To rejoice in this cyber world.
In which my mind is preoccupied.
Sleepless yet not fearless...
Nightly terrors in the faces
I call shadows...
They once were approaching me,
Trying to poach me
In my only place I feel most safe.
I can't sleep 'cause of this passion
And these frightening dreams....
Seems fine that I'm awake,
But if any longer
My mind will lead me
To a more dangerous bind...
I can't sleep.
