Chasing Dawn

Sometimes I rise 
In the stillness of the night, 
Sleep evades me, 
And the overthinker takes the stage. 
A million questions whirl in my mind, 
Each one unanswered, 
Breaking me, hurting me. 
Yet, I cling on until dawn. 

The sunrise brings new light, 
Illuminating my darkest fears. 
I yearn for the day to linger, 
But it slips away, only hours until nightfall. 
I crave a peaceful sleep, 
With dreams so sweet they wash my cares away. 
I hold onto the hope that one day, 
My wish will be granted.
