Staring in to the dark

Another night unable to sleep

Tired of counting endless sheep

Eyes wide open begin to think

Just staring aimlessly unable to blink

 

Dark thoughts pass through me head

As I lie motionless in my lonely cold bed

Sharp pains shooting down from my hip

Reach for the water, I begin to sip

 

Out of bed and go for a walk

Voices in my head begin to talk

Mistakes I’ve made and chances missed

Is this the night I finally get pissed?

 

Over thinking life and how to achieve

If only I had the self confidence to believe

Doubting my ability begins to break through

I need a fresh challenge, something new

 

Tomorrow night the process will be repeated

Until I finally accept that I’ll be defeated

The demons eating away my unconsciousness

The angels unable to believe their selfishness

 

Can nothing break this frame of mind?

This state is fast becoming my nightly grind

The silence broken as a dog begins to bark

And yet I’m still sitting staring into the dark
