Insomnia

Here I am at 3am scrolling through my phone up and down Adjusting it's brightness as it slowly hurts my eyes Here I am at 3am and in my thoughts I drown Slowly waiting for the sun to rise I am hoping for these white noise to silence my brain The waves, the thunder, the lightning and rain They've been my lullaby since 9pm But still I'm wide awake since then I should not have let this visitor in when it knocks I should have ignored it and put it in a box But instead, I took it in and spend much time Thinking, wishing, contemplating til it's past my bedtime. Now the sun is up and it's time for me to rise I got nothing but worries and bags under my eyes. This is driving me to the brink of paranoia This unwelcomed visitor named insomnia
