the sonnet about today

my heart stays calm once again.
i lost a chance to dream before a.m.
i'm staying with my thoughts,
eyes staring blankly on the pillow.

how many times did i tell myself:
"do not lose sleep for a palette
of several colours that can't be
mixed with yours."

it's like this ever single day.
i overeat to wash the feeling away.
but it's just becoming worse.

i guess i can't change, of course.
so i keep walking down the way
that makes me insane and drown.
