« I'm wondering if the dye | Main | Funny. For the first time »
I can’t sleep, I can’t write
The rising sun signals my losing fight
Against time and all it signifies
The new day brings dashed hopes and new lies
I can’t write and I can’t say
My losing battle with work today
The sleepless night has left me raw
All I want is to lie on the floor
I can’t say, I can’t die
Like a bird I want to fly
I want to leave everything and find escape
I have no wish to fulfil my fate
I can’t die and I can’t sleep
All I can do is sit here and weep
I wish myself away from it all
God grant me the serenity to accept my fall...
