Sleep deprived
Sleep deprived. Save my insanity.
Rain falls but doesn’t ease the pain.
Heads swirling but there is no connection.

Oh please calm this strain.

60 minutes go by and it feels like days.
Heavy breathing still doesn’t satisfy.
Pop a pill. Drown it with burning liquid.

Oh please calm this strain.

Around it all goes again.
A never-ending spiral.
The rain is harder now.
I still cant fall to the slumber of my desire.

Oh please calm this strain.

Think more. Take another swig.
Still deprived.
Who knew that little things strike a nerve in my brain.
Eyes are burning.

Easy now. I feel like i'm starting to drift.

Finally ease this strain.

At last.
