I am tired, restless to say the least
my eyes heavy, refusing to close
sadness weighing down my eyelids
but not enough to see me sleep
the moon stares at me
watching from afar
as I break off into the night
like the sun setting behind the ocean
cold air fills the sky
matching the temperature of my heart
love escaped me once again
pain is all that is left
my bones aching
under the pressure of depression
heartache mistaken for insomnia
the only cure would be to dream
but I'm alone, here beneath a full moon
unable to sleep
