Sleep

My thoughts,

They claw at the sides of my head,

Keep me awake at night,

Let my body feel with dread,

There's this weight on my shoulders,

The weight of the world,

Too much for one person to handle,

I'm just a little girl,

My mind wonders to life's corners,

I hear all it's whispers,

I jump many obstacles,

Life's sickest twisters,

But I can't close my eyes,

I can't go to sleep,

My mind is like an open door,

I'm in too deep,

Sometime's I scream,

Scream in frustration,

Why can't I close my eyes I ask,

Was I lost in translation?

I'm not sure why I'm so tired,

I'm not sure why I can't close my eyes,

I can see nightmares will I'm awake,

A little part of me just dies,

I would kill for sleep,

An entire freaking day,

Just one day of rest,

While everything else I cared about stayed away,

I just wanna shut my eyes,

But my demon's wanna reap,

They keep my eyes open,

Just so I wouldn't fucking sleep.
