I have a lot of nightmares here and there,
where I find myself in a place of utmost despair,
regarding things my mind seems to find as so blatantly unfair,
things that at the time can’t seem to find a way towards a fixable repair..
There are times when my thoughts become partially impaired,
by the well-being of my very own personal welfare..
But sometimes my mind dares to stare,
directly into the world’s current state of affairs..
My subconscious constantly over-prepared,
to go round and round like musical chairs,
and up and down as if lost on the stairs..
Due to this blight,
I often wake up in the middle of the night,
panicked,
frantic,
maybe even slightly manic..
My eyes blindly teary,
my mind exhaustedly weary..
I try to relieve the heaves of my cries,
but as time passes by and by,
the loudness of my sighs intensifies..
Oh I can’t deny,
how I wish a lullaby,
could rectify my battle cries..
Calmness is what I seek,
strength is what I wish to keep..
Although I undoubtedly know,
that my body flow,
just desperately needs a heap of more sleep..
Inside, down deep..
I cannot seem to make the leap,
to make things right,
to stop myself from continuing to wake up in the middle of the night..
Once before asleep,
now awake with a sadness of desperate weeps,
that never cease..
drops 🎤✌🏽
