No rest at night

No rest at night

A Poem by Billy

How do you silence that without a voice?

And if it has no voice, how does it speak?

My mind, never stops

 

An incessant taunting

Haunts me every night

Sleep does not come easy

 

A strong desire

A constant fear

Many questions unanswered

 

No real joy

Just distracting filler

Is that any way to get by?

 

I fear the stress will catch up to me

Swallow me whole

And I will cease to be
