I can't sleep at night.

I think its because I have bad days.

There aren't really bad nights.

There are rough nights, long nights.
Sleepless nights.

But I'm only losing sleep because i'm worried about the day ahead of me.

Theres just something about the time between sun set and sun rise.

That makes me think I need to fix an entire lifetime of mistakes.

I'll spend one short hour of the night, trying to fix 20 problems at once.

Why is finding a solution so time consuming,

When problems jump and multiply as quick as flieas?

I made 100 problems yesterday.
And I'll probably make 100 more today.

That only leaves the time between dusk to dawn

To try and fix some of them

I know that it's a vicious cycle.

But it'll never stop coming.

As long as the sun keeps setting.
