I stay up all night.
My mind gives me a fright.
I do not have enough might.
The outside has become bright.
I become blinded by the light.
My mind takes its own flight.
Acting like a bed bug, it takes a bite.
In my head, only darkness is in sight.
But I mustn't give up, and must fight.
I sit in my bed, upright.
I mustn't give up, not in despite.
I must smite the blight and not let it overwrite.
I will be alright.
