Trouble
I hate night time
When I go and lay for the attempt at sleep
But when I go it’s not sleep that’s on my mind
My mind sets off to find things to ponder on
I can’t control it
I feel as if he’s sitting in my head playing the video game of my thoughts and feelings and refuses to put the controller down for a break
It’s the main reason I tend to stay up until 1 AM
Or 2...or 3
I can’t rest with all the negativity pounding and racing through my all so delicate mind
When I most need a person to help me through it, Nobody's there
No one ever is
It’s always that one person who seems a million miles away
There presence that was once there has vanished
Abandoned.
Out of place.
Nowhere to go.
Except into the cold space in your bed
Letting the darkness swallow your heart
