Sunrise/sunset

You stayed up late last night
Crying in your sleep
Clinging your sore arm to you
All the pain in the chest hadn’t quite gone to the arm
The truth came out at last
And ripped your heart in two
You convince yourself you won’t make it through the night
You tried to end it all
You half hoped someone would notice
You half hoped someone would know
You tell no one and just wish the pain would kill you
It’s pitch black outside
You have no idea what the time is
You hoped the pain would distract you
But it’s still all in your head
Memories and repeated thoughts 
Rush on and on inside
You want it to be all over and just hide
A bright light alerts you
It’s the beginning of a brand new day
You hold on to the thought forever
“You can make it to another day”
The sunrise is beautiful it promises beginnings
But then you remember 
Sunsets are beautiful too
Which just proves some endings are worth it
