Sitting here awake at this hour,
haven't slept for days.
Caffine is survival,
world sleeps now.
...
I've never felt so alone in my
entire life as I do right now.
Surrounded by a sea of people
no ambition, no drive, no motivation.
...
As the sun shines down on the day
I look out my window
And the frost sparkles dance on the lawn.
It's a pretty sight indeed
...
I stop outside a travel agents window
Because I like the idea of leaving.
the
IDEA
...
I would like to float upon a leaf,
off into the deep blue sea.
I would like to float upon a leaf,
...
I'm scared,
but I'm scared of silly things,
like being sick,
or not being in control.
...
Look at all we've got
It's in these quiet moments
We wish these things for you
Go find yourself
...
Death is the only certainty
we're all dying already,
time is just wasting away.
...
None of this will matter soon.
Refectory. Rejectory.
5 more weeks
and it will all be over.
...
I don't know what it is about you,
but you're Danger Personified.
I don't love you.
God no.
...
I looked for you up in the
stands the other day.
As the hot sun beat down upon the
nape of my neck I hoped to catch a glimpse of
...
In a moment of loneliness
last night I text you
and now I'm seeing you
this evening
...
I'm not going to see You
for one whole week now
and by-god
I'm going to miss You.

Insomnia
Sitting here awake at this hour,
haven't slept for days.
Caffine is survival,
world sleeps now.
Hushed, silent town.
No men, women, children awake,
just me,
what am I to do?
Gazing into the dark
only one awake.
Rocking by the window
with acigarette.
Can't function during the day
got the shakes,
got the sweats,
need sleep.
Need sleep
but don't really want sleep
scared to sleep
unfamilliar.
Will go mad without sleep.
Talking gibberish.
Talk the truth.
3 AM.
But I'll keep watching from my window,
watching the night unfold,
watching the darkness creep
enslave me.
