SOMEDAY

I used to stay awake

But now I never sleep.

I always talk to my head

But I never answer.

I once had an idea

But now I forget a lot.

If I  could silence the chatter

I would find some peace.

I never give up

But I might fade away.

I can't find my voice

But I can draw it out.

I won't color the image

But I might outline it.

I used to sleep a lot

But now I never wake up.
