So tired.

I race the sun

The moon

The sun

How long now till my race is done  

I want to sleep

To rest

To dream

Instead i must strive

Not to live

Just stay alive

Can't i stop just for one hour one day

To catch my breath

Before it runs away.

To take a lot of pain,
take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud,
holds a lot of rain

Yo Walter,

This is a cute one.  Just be careful you don't outrun "it".

Take the time to count how many suns have gone by so far, and moons have passed. We romanticize under the moon more than the sun.
Maybe if we had as many nights with the moon as we do days with the sun, we would all love each other more.
Sounds like the makings of a poem.
