Restless
Another one of these restless nights of mine,
As I lay here, beneath the ceiling fan’s lights.
Thinking about everything that has been on my mind,
Letting reality as it is, slowly yet surely sink in.
Seems if only just for tonight, music is my elixir,
While I ponder about just how much I’ll ever mean to others.
Another one of these solitary nights of mine,
As I sit here writing out what’s momentarily on my mind.
Feeling as though I’ll never make it as far in life as I’d like,
For not too long ago, the world had put out the flames of my passions.
Oh these songs, the only things capable of mending my soul,
All while I remain pondering
Whether or not this life of mine will truly be worth living.
Another one of these sleepless nights of mine,
As I lay beneath the comforter, waiting for a dream to occur.
Hoping that through mine dreams
I shall see the future that is worth waiting for.
Leave me be as I finally sleep
For the world of dreams is where I am most happy.
Seems if only just for tonight, peace of mind is all I need,
As I drift off to sleep, as though I realized
Mmy life as it is, is how it’s meant to be.
