My Voice
My voice
Is the thing that can't be silenced
In the middle of the night
When all I want is quiet
At 3 am, two minutes past
Four hours too late
And four more
Til I've got to be awake
Lord, give me peace,
Some relief
Release me now, to sleep.
I pray.

Til I've got to be awake
Lord, give me peace,
Some relief
Release me now, to sleep.
I pray.

Thanks for reading!
Sometimes I cherish my insomnia, as it is often the time when I am most inspired. But my body always resents my creativity in the morning :)

Inspiration is an addiction. The voice is the innocent self, always wanting to explore, to play. Late night when nothing else is doing is TIME to buzz!

I would not call the voice that wants to explore and play late in the night "innocent" at all.
Thank you for reading!
