Sleepless Night

when the night comes, so does the heavy eyelids.
when the heavy eyelids come, so does the tired body.
when the tired body comes, so does the thoughts in my head.
its just unbearable.

night after night, struggling to get into my own world.
night after night, hearing the squeak of the fan over my bed.
night after night, hearing the cat's purr and the dog's bark even people's snore.
night after night...

how cold and cruel the dark night,
making me listen to its problem all night.
my dream are within my grasp,
so close yet so far.

walking down the hallway,
looking through the glass door,
into the empty courtyard.
reminding me of the time that is now.

walking back the hallway,
back into my room.
curling up on the chair,
pulling up my soft and warm blanket.

how i wish for time to pass,
as fast as a second could last.
so i may see my tomorrow,
but hoping not to see its sorrow.
