Effects of a Sleepless Night

Effects of a Sleepless Night

Sleep escapes me once again

So my body retaliates
By shutting down
My eyes grow heavy
As my head bobs
To walk feels like drifting
I go neither straight nor crooked
A zombie is what I am
Lifeless looking for life
Dozing off trying to
Recharge the battery
Using all my strength
To stay awake
Only makes me more tired
This cycle goes on forever
Like a living Nightmare
With open eyes time moves slow
As soon as they close however
Time moves faster than a
Blink. If I could
I’d sleep like
A Bear in the Ground
Away from distraction
Knowing however that can’t
Be done I must instead
Continue on this life
A mindless drone

Life Worth Living

Life Worth Living

A life not lived is a life now wasted

Lies were told, Promises broken

The time we had now forsaken

Lessons learned as morals broke

Never leaving, Branching out

A life not lived is a life now wasted

Months went by and Turned to years

Thrown away what once was good

The time we had now forsaken

Choices were made

Friendships fell through

The time we had now forsaken

A life not lived is a life now wasted

Lost the memories that were shared

Hourglass sands slipping by

The time we had now forsaken
