Sleep Demon

Sometimes,

On nights like this,

I’d like to close my eyes for ever

Just to never to feel like this, never.

These are when all those

Sadness and insanity haunt me

And turn my insides out

And as much as I scream and shout

No one knows about

The poison working it’s way through my mind;

My heart and soul;

Blurring my sight

Of the reality.

One thousand dreams

I see in one second

All of those serve no purpose

If I’m to end.

Believe me, I don’t want to die

It’s just that I have lost

Most reasons that keep me alive.

On nights like this

I just want to shut my eyes

Along with my soul

And sleep peacefully

Along with my soul.
