Sadly Awake

Here I am
it's two AM
Just lying awake in bed
Part of me is relieved
Part is dead

Thinking of mistakes and wrongs
performed through the day
Trying my hardest
to keep my demons at bay

Tossing and turning
for hours on end
I just wish someone,
would help my mind mend

I'm broken, beaten down
Just plain attacked
At night I'm forced
to think on how I act

Here I am at six AM
almost drifting off to sleep
trying to remember
They sow what I reep

I'm awaken to daylight
Falling even further down
but who cares about me?
The girl who's a clown.
