Sleepless
i cannot stop my mind from thinking
the constant pulse disturbs my sleep
i find my concious self is sinking
my fear is that i plunge too deep
how long must i forego this feeling
that my life is way out of touch
forever days that hold no meaning
eternal thoughts that hurt so much
im so tired yet cannot slumber
as vivid sights confound my eyes
another sleepless night encumbered
with all the noise my mind supplies
i wish that i could find my reason
to calm my mind and make it cease
halt my brains perpetual treason
to give my life some kind of peace
