Time and time again

I try to walk away

Leave them behind

But they come back

The memories

Of the past

That haunt me

Through the night

Over and over

I try to run away

From the past

But it always

Catches up

Dragging me back down

Into my misery

Sleepless nights

Spent staring at

My ceiling praying

That I will be able

To sleep tonight

Just for a few hours

But my prayers

Go unanswered

Another day begins

With a cup of coffee

A Monster later on

Struggling to stay awake

Another cup of coffee

When I get home

An endless cycle

Over and over
