4
Its 4 in the morning,
and I feel as if I am in mourning
I've been sleeping less
and staying up more,
The past keeps me up,
and I fear what's in store.
The clock reads 4,
and I feel as if I have been here before.
I am more accepting of myself,
yet sleep's sweet embrace eludes me.
The voices chatter incessantly.
Both parties wishing to be free.

Oh the hours I have just watched.
In the night the voices steal my sanity,
and I fall victim to the sounds and the sights.
Reality and fantasy blur,
and I seek a way to tell dark from light.
At 4, they watch and stare,
I can see one now, on the stair.
The little girl cries out,
and the man stands over my bed.
And I thought both of them were real,
but, forget what I said.
I know its the morning at 4,
but wHo's side arE thse Little People in My hEad fighting for
