Sleepless

I don't know what I'm waiting for.
I'm constantly checking, waiting, thinking I'll miss something.
If I wait a little longer,
Maybe there will be some resolution
Something will change
Some small thing
And then I can just
sleep
sleep the night through
without waiting and pacing
Waiting for something to happen
Anxious for the next day to begin
So I can do
do something
have a purpose
work and work
and accomplish
but I can't
because I'm tired
Because I can't sleep
because I'm waiting
for you to tell me
it's ok now
you can sleep
sleep
