Sleep
I can’t breathe, I can’t sleep
all I want is to slumber deep
I want the pain and hurt to go away
and not come again another day.
My chest feels tight
my knees feel weak
my loneliness has reached its peak
I’m sad and depressed with my life
that I feel can change with the slice of a knife.
Look at me and what do you see?
But a sad lonely girl sleeping peacefully.
