Are You Sleepless Again?

Looking at those bruises on your wrist

You burst out with tears

But you’re silent, you’re pale

Let me ask you, are you sleepless again?

 Is it the past that is haunting you

Or is it the present which doesn't seem  fine

Oh tell me what it is

Cos there is not always an intervention

And for sure it isn't divine!

I know times have been hard

And I know you anticipate much more pain

But tell you what my ole friend

I am here for you as I was then

So look into my eyes while you answer

Are you sleepless again?

There’s a silver lining that you deny to see

There’s a long road before thee

And you know life’s short, its freaking mean

So we better keep going shall we?

Not much of the times did I tell you this

But I have been in that place of yours

I know it’s tough, I know it’s painful

But is worth the atrocities?

No is my answer and hope would be yours

You know the sea is better off shores

So sail, would ya? Or fly if you could 

Cos if I were you I better would

There a new world about that horizon you would notice

And when we meet there again, you don’t make me ask

Whether you’re sleepless again!
