My thoughts are stars i cannot fathom into constellations- The Fault in Our Stars


Twisted sheets, knotted hair
Thoughts running trough my mind
I ask, why cant the sandman be so kind
And grant my wish of sleep tonight

Tossing, turning, crying out
"Let this stop!" my body shouts
Eyes are red, pillow is wet
Why is unconsciousness so hard to get?

Pills don't help, neither does music
Sleep would help, I could use it
Thoughts are reeling in my mind
I beg you sandman, would you be so kind?

It was during the Summer and I was going through a really hard time with one of my friends. I did not sleep for like a week. I wrote this when I was up one sleepless night.
