Need sleep

lack of sleep

The ignorance of one
Runs in ruins in my veins
Wants to sucker punch
For I was not given the same opportunity
As I wake daily I lose interest of what is in sight
Who am I here trying to outdo me or you
I have had enough
However, I will never give up
Just in a funk of all my insecurities
Lack of sleep and patience are in twined
In hopes that tonight I get a good night’s sleep
How can I sleep if I see the things I wish I didn’t see?
For all I know I see glimpse of my own death
Just the thought has me
I need to fall asleep in a lover’s dream a
Perhaps that’s all I need
The lack of love and support has me thinking
Am I even a somebody
