I'm awake Wide awake at 12 in the morning Ready for my eyes to be heavy with sleep, but instead my eyes are heavy with tears While my family is sleeping in the bed next to mine I lay still and empty of life as not to wake them at 12 in the morning, when the world itself is not even up yet

12 in the morning
I'm awake Wide awake at 12 in the morning Ready for my eyes to be heavy with sleep, but instead my eyes are heavy with tears While my family is sleeping in the bed next to mine I lay still and empty of life as not to wake them at 12 in the morning, when the world itself is not even up yet
I can't sleep to much on my mind and not enough energy in place to turn down the voices in my head that are keeping me up past time to be sleeping. Have a good night or day depending on where you are and hopefully you get enough sleep❤
