Sleepless Again


I sit here thinking about you

Wondering if you're okay and

What's going through your mind

 

Are you alright, love? What

Troubles you face, surely I can

Help you fix if only you'll let me in

 

Let go of the things you cannot control

Say no to the ones who drag you so far

Down into this pool of constant shifting

 

Learn to live, to breathe, to see

Things around you, so beautiful like

The little hand that holds tightly to your finger

 

Look beyond the walls you've built and let

Someone in to love and cherish

This heart that you keep so guarded
