While I Try To Sleep
While I Try To Sleep
At night my dad leaves
For his woodworking class
And my brother cries
Annoyingly
Outside my bedroom door
I hear it every night
He asks my mom
To call my dad
To come home
To sleep with him
He is afraid to sleep alone
She walks out of the room
Goes over to comfort him
So he quiets down
She says no
Dad is in the middle of his lesson
And my brother keeps crying
All while I try to sleep
