Restless sleep

When you can’t sleep, count sheep
But the sheep don’t appear
The echoing of your name
Is the only thing I hear
In my mind, as if my brain
Vanishes, leaving an open space
Throughout the village of mountains
I hear the echo and in the snow I see your face

When you can’t sleep, count sheep
Still the sheep aren’t in sight
The fire in my mind that burns for you
During sleep, once again ignites
Toss and turn in restless sleep
To get close to you, I sometimes walk
In reality you’re not around
So why in my dreams, do you stalk?

When you can’t sleep, count sheep
But when I do, the sheep quickly turn
Into sweet memories of you
In restless sleep you need me
When I awaken, it’s not true

Make the best-excerpt from "Words One Can't Describe" book

Out of a bad situation one has to make the best Though it may be crucial, must lay all evil to rest Irritating ordeals, of misconception is put to the test Overcome the despair that clutches you by the chest Never the less, something or someone will bring you down, but it won’t be the first The mind thinks it is weak as it can only get worst Companionship is gathered and evenly dispersed Momentum increase, leaving the great with the worst When you find that one’s pride had to be swallowed Kneel to the ground and pray for tomorrow Like the oak tree whose insides is hallowed Go on with creation and continue to follow The path to happiness is only a few moments away Hang on tight for there will be brighter days Keep your head high as you are so blessed Out of a bad situation, one has to make the best Written by Marcia S. McNeill Q: What is a bad situation that you made into the best situation?
