Lost

I lie awake
Afraid to sleep
If I stay awake
I see him in the day
If I fall asleep
I suffer hell through the night
Can I ever win against him?
Maybe if I jump off the cliff of sanity
I could beat him
No.
No such luck
He's still there
As strong as ever
Haunting my dreams
Cunning. Devious.
Sweet. Angelic.
He can be either.
But no matter what his game
I always lose.
