overkill

I can’t get to sleep,
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications.

Especially at night,
I worry over situations
I know will be alright.
Perhaps it’s just imagination.

Day after day, it reappears
Night after night, my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away

Alone between the sheets
Only brings exasperation.
It’s time to walk the streets,
Smell the desperation.

At least there’s pretty lights.
And though there’s little variation
It nullifies the night
From overkill.

Day after day, it reappears
Night after night, my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away
Come back another day

I can’t get to sleep,
I think about the implications
Of diving in too deep
And possibly the complications.

Especially at night,
I worry over situations that
I know will be alright;
It’s just overkill

And day after day, it reappears
Night after night, my heartbeat shows the fear
Ghosts appear and fade away
Ghosts appear and fade away
Ghosts appear and fade away
