Jan 2018
The stillness in the night
When you fight that sleepless fight
Will drive you insane
From dusk till early mornings light

The demons dwelling in your head
Are all screaming to be fed
Fears and insecurities on repeat
Nothing will be left unsaid

On and on it goes
Till every raw nerve you expose
And you're begging on your knees
For your mind to just close

But insomnia's a *****
It'll make you cry
And every muscle in your body twitch

Till you can't keep still
And yourself you want to ****

For just a moment of peace
And some sleep
Your minds only release.
