Let Me Sleep

There is no way to describe

How I feel deep inside

Never have I felt before

This pain that’s writhing at my core

 

One step forward, two steps back,

The brambled path at which I hack

The maze with infinite dead ends

The burning signals my heart sends.

 

The sanity that I lose

The all time low of my blues

The little man in my head

That never rests and instead

 

Does cartwheels, spins around

Continually he will pound

Inside my head to let me know

That these thoughts will never go.

 

Could the guy just take a break?

Have a Kit Kat? Bake a cake?

For one moment I’d like to sleep,

Just give me that, not one peep?

I think Let Me Sleep is a good title. Really like this one. Great rythm and rhyme scheme. I can totally relate to this one. Good work!
