Some of us go to sleep
Or try to go to sleep
Most nights
With tears falling
Drop by drop onto the pillow

You push your face into the pillow
As your pain dissolves into salty tears
Although It doesn't leave you
It beats you up
Then gives you a break
Then makes a come back

A night or nights
We spend,dragging in deep breaths
To calm the raging storm in our hearts
For some;success
For some; hope shattered
