The night is very silent
Yet my mind is still awake
Time slowly passes
When I look again
Another minute has passed
And I still see light
I could think about
Everything from left to right
Nothing seems to stop
It’s hard to admit
I can’t seem to fall asleep
The drink does not help
I let the time pass
And it really does pass me
Some light seems to come
Now I am not alone
They have awakened early
But it’s not early
I don’t remember
The exact start and finish
With this weird cycle
Some thoughts are too strange
Keeping me awake from sleep
Can I get up now?
The time is unknown
I drift in and out of sleep
I really suffer
It never seems good
Appears to be even worse
What should I do now?
