As I lay in the darkness
and stare at the walls,
worried about what
tomorrow will hold,
today was a hard one
hope tomorrow is not,
all day long I feel like I've fought,
just to keep going,
just to move on,
I try to sleep but somehow it's
gone.
I close my eyes
so that sleep can be found,
but somehow my mind
just won't settle down,
all the thoughts and ideas
spinning around,
what can I do to quiet the sound?
As I lay in the darkness
and stare at the wall,
knowing that soon the
morning will call,
then I will get up
and start a new day,
hoping this night,
that sleep won't escape.
