You come home late at night After a tiring day; Wash up, bathe and rinse. Ate that left over dinner Your mother prepared for you. Go on your bed Preparing to sleep. Wanting to sleep. Couldn't sleep. She's keeping you awake isn't she? Strolling through your thoughts; Her laughter echoes and wavers. Your thoughts are emptied, Except for her. Took a few shots of that old bottle of whiskey You had stored for better days. Hoping for her to disappear From your thoughts; As well as in reality. It's 4am yet you're wide awake. Emotions are still firing. You feel heavy; Wanting her, Missing her. You can't ever be with her... 5am drowsiness gets the upper hand You fall asleep Only to wake up the next morning You see her again
