Counting SheepA Poem by Travis PrinoThe duller the knife the harder the strike it will leave me bloody and scarred but it's just beginning your voice is singing I won't feel anything at all the pain I feel inside it cuts me deep like razor blades killing my counted sheep and I'd do anything, anything, anything for sleep and I'd give anything, anything, anything to sleep to sleep it all away the more I think the more I sink it's an endless cycle in my head try to climb out beaten down with doubt better off motionless in my bed the pain I feel inside it cuts me deep like razor blades killing my counted sheep and I'd do anything, anything, anything for sleep and I'd give anything, anything, anything to sleep to sleep it all away ugly on the outside to show off my insides everyone will know this is your fault bleed all that I've been so much for not giving in I'm dying here from this fatal assault the pain I feel inside it cuts me deep like razor blades killing my counted sheep and I'd do anything, anything, anything for sleep and I'd give anything, anything, anything to sleep to sleep it all away I want to sleep it all away sleep it all away I want to sleep it all away sleep it all away I want to sleep forever sleep forever I want to sleep forever sleep forever so I can forget her. © 2015 Travis Prino |
