Image for the poem Sleep

Sleep

Alone in the dark,
Alone in my mind,
I search for reason,
That I can never find.

Silent tears fall,
As I hold myself tight,
Promise never to make a noise,
Hope it will all be alright.

A house full of people,
Do I want to reach out?
I hold myself tighter,
They will never see me pout.

A phone full of contacts,
A tight group of friends,
But I am always alone,
Will the sadness ever end?

No matter how much I glue,
I always come apart,
And no one ever hears me,
Not even the one who has my heart.

Silent tears fall,
As I hold myself tight,
All I want is someone to help me,
Find sleep in the night.
