I lay awake at night
When things are not alright
I look at the dark
It leaves no physical mark
This is the time when dark thoughts enter
They fill me up and knock me off center
I feel them in my heart
From the inside, they tear me apart
I struggle to keep them at bay
But, in the dark they make me pay
They scream at me to listen
Because in the dark they glisten
Life can be hard some days
It can make you feel blue and grey
But know that tomorrow you'll feel okay
