no sleep!

Its done, the day!
Night has fallen over the earth.
Wrapping its darkness of warmth,
only by my blanket I feel.

The starshine is the only light that i see;
it cast shadows from the past.
Reflecting on my memories, as I count the sheep... at last, sleep!
No, these thoughts bring vigilance and panic.

Its over, I'm up!
Now Lingering like dust,
on words I should have not spoken!

Crying and wishing to any God who cares,
"take away all the pain from the past."
It's drifted into the present,  on a river of tears.

I build up a dam to blockade all my affliction. Causing  heavy eyes that I have  longed for,  relinquishing on all miserable thoughts.

Sleep! The end!
But only for a few short hours.
For the sunshine comes and takes all power.
