Night To Day

..... " Night To Day " .....

Here I am waiting for sleep to find me soon ,
While searching for the stars and the moon,

For in the dark insomnia sneaks about , 
Never letting your eyelids shut  out 

And at 3 -00am your such a *****,
Your just like a bad old witch,

Never giving me a moments peace,,
Totally ignoring my pleas to cease,

And the pain just won't go a way 
Even counting sheep has had its day ,

Draining , Never letting me be ,
Never ever setting me free. 

When I barely have the energy to get out of bed, 
And away from all this negativity in my head ,

When I,m fighting every day ,
Just to get through it in my own way ,

For tired dosen't even come close ,  
To what   Frustration feels like the most ,

Everyday I have no where to hide, 
From all these emotions  deep inside ,

Insomnia, depression sweeps over me , 
Every day it won't let me  be , 

But when the day it is dawning ,
And pinks and reds in the sky  it brings , 

Then a smile appears upon my face, 
For once again I feel part of the human race ...
