Give me nightmares any day
Even as I say
We need more love
And I am capable of that
The devils in my mind
Unbeknown to me
Must be dreaming up
Scenarios to jolt me awake.
But worse still
Is when I'm awake at 3 am
For no reason
And I'm left with a pounding heart
And wide-eyed in the darkness
Hoping I can hang on
Until morning.
