Answers for my Restless Soul

I've been awake all night Can't seem to fall asleep This time, without any methamphetamine It feels weird - out of the ordinary Especially after sleeping two full days - in recovery My gf said my pupils look big I guess she's doubting my intake too But not to blame her - I probably would have too I have so much going through my head So grateful for many things and friends My gf and my family above all rest Except my son, ofcourse - he's forever my No1 and More! I have a troubled mind Don't think it entails me this time though.. Its my inner being That cares so much for the weak... I know I help where I possibly can Lucky for me - I have a very understanding and supportive group But all the worlds troubles, Are causing me sleepless nights it seems Food, we can supply for those in need Stationary for the poor, is no problem either.. But what about the precious jewels - that end up suicidle? I had training in this field Got a certificate to prove it too! But what use is it - if I don't really know what to do?? She's a very dear friend of mine Very close to my heart Unconditional friendship love I see the hurt in her eyes!! Maybe if I stay awake a little bit longer Think about the situation a little bit more thorough.. Maybe the answers will find my restless soul! If only God could write it on my cupboard door!! I am really tired And need my beauty sleep My son will need all of me very soon.. But yet - I think.. Maybe if I stay awake a little bit longer Think about the situation a little bit more thorough.. Maybe the answers will find my restless soul! Still hopefully staring at my cupboard door.. I always find a way to help those in need.. Its second nature and easy for me.. But the ones who need my help the most.. Seem to catch me at my weakest - I'm no good with cancer or disease nor meth addicts neither?! :'( But I won't give up on either I refuse to let them go I know I will find the strength somewhere And let them know - They will never be alone! Even if my words and actions fail them - my mind or heart never strays... So... Maybe if I stay awake a little bit longer Think about the situation a little bit more through.. Maybe the answers will find my restless soul!
