Sleeping Pills

And that is why I am tired

Because I don’t get enough sleep at night

Because I think way too much about things that don’t matter

Because there is so many other interesting things to do

Like read, write, fall in love, and maybe even break a heart

Because sleep is generally a waste of time

Because sleeping pills no longer work for me

Because that one show no longer airs in the day

Though it ruled the 90s and my childhood

Because the man on the moon is much happier than man on the sun

Because I drink far too much coffee just to keep me awake in class

Because at night the freaks come out

And the freaks are much more enjoyable than the squares

Because there is people out there dying for nothing

Because my pet rooster tends to forget what time the day begins

Because my mind twists and turns like rollercoasters

And I am deadly afraid of rollercoasters

Because it’s always daytime somewhere

Because there is something wrong with me

Because Sleep no longer desires my company

Although it lusts after me in the day time

Because there is people out there living for nothing

Because sleep seems far too similar to the end

Because I am full of contradictions

That never seem to leave me be

Distant Friend


I don’t know you very well

But I want to

I'm just afraid of everything you are

Of everything we could be

Though I know it might not happen

For now you are a friend

A distant friend

A new friend

Someone that could be more

But might just break me

Might just destroy what is left of me

But I am someone old

Only new to you

Someone who could destroy you

Crush you

Throw you on the floor

Demolish you

Yet we could become something

Beautiful

Amazing

Perfect

Something like a poem

A perfect sonnet

A perfect relationship

A perfect something

Anything
