MY NIGHTS
I want to go to sleep
But these thoughts keep me awake
I wish that it would go away
For my mind and hearts’ sake
I feel like I want to cry
But I can’t produce the tears
I should be use to it by now
It feels like this has been going on for years
Why can’t I sleep like everyone else?
Why do I have to stay up all night?
And have all these things invade my mind
It makes me feel that nothing can ever go right
And yet somehow I still push on
And go day by day
But when night comes
Those thoughts come back my way
This smile I show people
It fools everyone it sees
Because it hides my true sorrow
My anxiety, my pain, torment, and madness
That goes on, deep down internally
