Tonight Not Tomorrow

my eyes are closing 
leaving the world to be
my thoughts are to come to a rest
and dreams to start forming
the day is finally done
my problems for the day are gone
more to come tomorrow
but for tonight
i shall lay down asleep
thinking of a perfect day
and calming myself down
my eyes are now closed
the world and i are gone
letting all my pains and my suffers
flow above me
to catch me in the morning
but leave me tonight
