Good Night

I struggled to sleep and I'm failing miserably

Can't believe I wasted hours of restless tossing and turning

No matter what i do, I'm still as awake as i can be

No matter what i do, I'm still awake and still breaking

At this red painting I found myself staring

It was pulling me in and I let it take me

And looking at its winding road had me thinking

At the end, would there ever be you and me?

I looked up at the ceiling and it gazed down at me

As if asking me why I'm still up, uselessly pondering

So I closed my eyes and hoped that sleep would come to me

Silently prayed to see you when I wake in the morning...
