Slumber
In the dead of night I weep , hoping I can go
Back to sleep . Lying awake for goodness sake
What can I do to calm myself.
A idea pops in my head, I shall read in my bed
Pages go by but what do they say , My eyes get heavy
Back down I start to lay
Now the sun is beginning to shine, get up get up
It’s that time . Another night of no sleep
All I can do is sit and weep.
