sleep

Problems
Overthinking
Have I hit bottom?
My minds expanding
Never sleeping
I stay awake
Never dreaming
What happens when
we are dreaming
Do our demons
Watch us
Smirking
Always scheming
Of ways to find a reason
For making life hell
when you can't see one
You try your hardest
You fight the season
Well, actually, it's your past
But that should be done
As you struggle to make ends meet
Your brittle your bone cause there is no meat
It was the life you tried to beat
You cover what you've lost
And you sag in defeat
Cause all you want is a little sleep
To mend
To gain
The faith you neglected
But that's not the way heathen
For they surround you, you're the beacon
You figured it out, and now you're wanted for treason
Now your breath is uneven
Shallow
You start to shake, but what is the reason
I don't understand, and yet there's a voice in my head
'Oh, that's great! This is a treat!'
They whisper in unison
There must have been a dozen
'We didn't think before; we'd get to meet!!'
They cry
'All because you didn't sleep.'
They chant
And in the void
I went
Deep
I'm tired
I can't sleep
