8 o’clock rings the clock 
Time for our heads to hit the pillows
Time to rest our tired eyes
Time to go on to tomorrow 
Turn on the radio
Listen to some music or
Lay silently while 
Listening to nature outside our windows 
Let time tick by as you drift off to sleep


Or maybe introduce your creativity tonight 
Maybe play a little game 
Just you and me
Me and you 
A game we can play until we drift off to sleep
What should we be
Pirates
Princesses
Campers 
Singers 
School kids
We could be anything 
Maybe we could be singers 
That go on a camping vacation
Or princesses that go to a royal school
Or maybe we can be everyday pirates 
It’s our imagination it’s up to us completely 
How will we be falling asleep 
Who will we become 
Will I be Jessica the princess 
Or Rose the singer
Let’s pretend 
All these crazy insane fantasies 
Trapping our brain in an endless swirl of dreams
Letting our eyes close 
Drifting off to sleep 
For tomorrow to arrive

When me and my sister were younger neither of us could fall asleep. She hated the radio on and I hated it off. We had to share a room so we tried to work around it. We played games pretending we were different people. We never actually left our beds though. It surprisingly helped us both fall asleep every night.
