Beckon the Dawn

I don't know if 

I'll ever fall asleep.

 

I need to numb my mind

because these thoughts 

are tearing me apart.

 

I want to quit so bad.

 

But I know that 

I was chosen for a reason.

 

I want to rise 

above my emotions,

yet they control me completely.

 

And this tear-stained pillow

will either be the end of me

or beckon the dawn.
