9pm I go to bed
and hope that the thoughts won't creep into my head
most times they manage to get in
and I can never win
the "everything's fine" voice in my head is overwhelmed by the "but what if its not?"
it takes over and suddenly I forgot
how tired I am because I feel like if I do not plan for my fears they will get me tonight
and maybe they did before I turned out the light
the thoughts are my biggest fear, and they are always here
even at 3am when school is hours away
and I'm not yet ready to face the day
the thoughts tire me out
but time to wake comes without a doubt
four hours of sleep and six cups of liquid caffeine
the usual routine
because last night faced the same drill
and maybe tomorrow I'll take a sleeping pill
