Calm nights in the fall
When the sky is even bluer
Above my head
Stars shine in the space
And I am here, lost in
Thoughts.

I can not find the sound requested,
I try to erase the images of the past,
But, my head goes insane
In the places I have been

In the secret of the night
The sleep no more exists
That necessary turn off
No longer comes and I can't resist
The pain starts
I am missing you

The days go by
And nothing new ever happens
Everything is routine

I am learning to live by myself
my thoughts help me to conclude
That the human beings are far
from everything and everyone

Modern life determined
a new way to behave
a life closed in a room
without the warmth of a body
That I am in need

Is that what we want?
Was that what we chose?

Maybe, I have my
Heart closed
I won't find peace
The light in my way is off
And my soul can't be found

Everything going on
In my mind
In the tic tac of the clock
I see how hard it is to destroy
A relationship, or if it was
Broken for a thousand reasons
It doesn't matter
It is time for the truth
To clean the dirt and get over it
Reconcile with God and yourself
Because there is no other way


I beg God to light my path
because, I can no longer live
Without you in my way
    

Thank you Guys for reading lots of Love,

The 3rd stanza really speaks to me.  I'm in my 3rd week of insomnia. Perhaps this is the reason why?  

 It matters not how strait the gate;
How charged with punishments the scroll;
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
--W.E. Henley
