You would leave me all alone
But then you flew back into my life with no notice.
And together we fought through my toughest days.
And made my good moments great
With no regrets as we took this new path towards better things and ways.
We didn’t need to look back for we knew what was ahead was the only option we needed.
For we survived and would get through the rest in no time.

Who wanted sleep
But now only getting hours here and there.
Falling asleep through out the day as mornings are spent tossing and turning.
So restless and feeling so hopeless with no hope insight as this is the third morning in a row.
Laying awake turning to close my eyes so hard in hope that will convince myself to fall back to sleep.
But here I am still up since waking up a little after 3am.
Tried reading and praying and yet here I am still up as a part of me begs for sleep.
Yet no relief insight as the morning comes and my responsibilities start to pile up and all I want to do is go back to sleep.

as if I might just burst into a million pieces.
As I somehow have nowhere safe to say what needs to be said.
The words are in my head but no matter how hard I try they won’t come out.
And if they could you wouldn’t want to hear them anyways and so I guess I’ll just keep bottling it up until I have no more room to store it all.
For these are the days of my life and maybe that’s why things feel not so bright lately.
The dullness of my life is all around no matter what corner of my life I go to nothing is lighting up the way it used too.
