Toss and Turn

Jaryyn

I get down on my bed
wishing sweet dreams 
while resting my head

still tonight 
nightmares coming to my dream
demons stepping into my head
they are luring and taking me down 
burying me deep 
while I laze and sleep

no matter how hard I pray
and words I say
I just been kept down 
and all 
I can do 
I just lay

my haunting memories are building a wall
creating a heavy burden 
which is crushing me down
pushing my head through 
this gloomy crown

at the end
I feel how 
hell is touching my silver star
pushing my life out 
of radar

If there was some beauty 
now its long time gone 
and my mind's long rain 
never seems to end

all around me 
feels to be rotten
soon all nice and pretty 
are forgotten

no matter how hard I fight 
I just end up with
endless night

this is how 
I toss and turn

        Lovely write. "Hell is touching my silver star, pushing my life out of radar", that line stood out to me a lot for some reason, I really like it. Praying for your restful nights 🙂 - RnR
