Sleepless

Thoughts of heaven and hell run through this head.
        Many nights I have laid awake in this bed.
        Thinking about how, when, and where.
        Thinking about this life that I share.

I know I’m walking on the weird side of this track.
        I’m wondering how I’ll ever get back,
        If I want to, and where that’s suppose to be.
        I guess I’ll just have to wait and see.

I second guess if this is the right thing to do.
        Hoping I can make if through.
        Finding it hard to close my eyes,
        Because what I will see is a surprise.
