Losing Sleep

I'm constantly in bed, yet rarely i sleep. All i do is cry and weep. I think of times gone by and the things that i had. Times that were good and times that were bad. If i could have them all back, I would give my life away. But I know that this is a dream, I'm dreaming my life away. Always in bed yet rarley asleep, the clouds and the rain begin to reap the possession that is my soul. I have no-one to turn to and nowhere to go. Its a black hole where im constantly falling, my eyes wont close, they're forever bawling. I try to hide this behind a mask, and its easy to forget. But its just as easy to live a life of bitter regret. I'm always in bed, yet i rarely sleep. It's been one month and week. Before this i had everything, everything was lost, I'm back where i started, in a christian synogogue. A lie. A fake. A big contradiction. No love to share, just pain affliction. I spread it around as I'm falling down, so everything else falls too. I guess i'm just selfish, like everyone else, including you. The reader of pain. These seconds you waste will never be yours again.
