WARNINGS: depression, borderline suicidal thoughts

Do you ever feel

Like you don't want 

To go to bed 

Because you don't want 

To wake up

So you cautiously balance

On the razor blade edge

Between awake

And asleep

Not fully aware 

But not giving in 

To temptation of 

Temporary death

Or maybe you feel

Like you can't get enough

Of this release 

From the challenges 

Of life 

Ignoring the world

You can't win 

Either way

You feel crazy

Who is scared

Of sleeping?

Who is scared

Of being awake?

What if I'm scared

Of both?
