Sleep Tonight

Haunted by thoughts, ghosts won't stop racing Another night lingers, full of mistakes I'd chosen Secure but miserable seemed the best way to be Ignored all my wants, safety in misery Lie down, breathe, put pen to paper Thoughts can escape now that it's safer One by one they come to life Letter by letter, I string my strife Free my mind from shackled regret Forgive myself, I'm the only one left Craving connection to one pure soul Feel the feels, no longer alone Begin my search for a love that's real A kindred spirit who refused to kneel Face unknown but eyes tell a story Beautiful pain can lead to glory If I sleep tonight & float away I'll dream of words that I could say Smiling eyes that light your face Graceful thoughts that leave a trace AcK 2020 ~ cunt of a year
