My heart goes down
As the Sun comes up
I try to sleep, but my heart is awake
It is restless
My thoughts are running around the room in circles
I hear nothing but noises
The nuisance of my thoughts
And the anxious heartbeats
There is no light in the room
But the day outside is already waiting for me
I better get ready for life,
But the tiredness has taken over me
Feelings won’t just go away
Without putting up a fight
It is so dense
So intense
I guess it’s a fair fight
Life trying to pull me through
But, these vicious feelings
Are trying to perish
Should they give up?
or should I give up?
Life is stronger
The Sun is warmer
The day calls me
I better get ready and put aside all demons
That come to torment at night
Let this love battle wait
Until the night…
