Sleep

Flick!

The darkness touches the corners of my room.

I jump in

and settle into the warm sheets.

Music fills the room

and lightly soothes my buzzing head.

I can already feel my eyes get heavy.

Then the sleep takes me uhnder it's spell

and I lay there for hours.

Until I am jolted awake.

I rise with silence now filling the room.

Not this again

I thought.

I close my eyes

in hopes that sleep will take me back.

Only for my alarm clock to wake me back up.

I just like to put my feeelings down on paper, since that seems easier than anything else. I also had problems with waking up in the middle of the night lately and that's pretty much what this is about.
