some nights

there are nights that you just can't sleep
no reasons, apparently
no sadness, no bad omens
just eyes, that won't shut close

other nights, you feel alive
with less noise, and high pulses
wide waking at three in the morning
but some nights you find peace
amidst everything; the crying

there are also nights when you feel weak
restless and anxious
like the world has turn
and all is left is you and you alone

some nights, time seems too fast
like every ticking sound make
seems hasty as your heartbeat
last night was different although
it was sad, and everything paces really slow

but of all nights i've had
i fancy those filled with undying silence
i lay there motionless, still
and nobody seems to care where i've been

these are the nights worth dreaming
for they are reminders, the least
that even the heartbreaking silence
and tragic scenes, most
are to be gone by morning
