HIDING FROM SLEEP

Some days I wake up

Only to find myself

Stuck within the depths of hell



I try so hard to stay awake

I try so hard to run away

For days on and nights

I try to embrace the light



Yet sleep, it never waits

It always has its ways

As I sleep on for days

Only to wake up, yet again



Been hurt as an alien of this earth

By this life handed upon my birth

I find myself drowning

Deeper within myself again





Sleep always gets away

Suffering from an addiction to sway

It always succeed in her ways

As I try hard to stay awake
